Re: KDE 3.1.3 status

This is actually slightly disappointing to me given that 3.1.2 seemed
very close to ready to go into testing. (I'm sure you won't lose any of
the fixes applied to it, of course, but a new upstream version
usually means new bugs found.)

Are you refering to
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11641
perhaps? This appears to be ia64-specific. It works on mainline (3.4).
Hopefully someone will regression-hunt it soon.
Please make sure to report all GCC bugs which cause KDE builds to fail.
But you knew that. :-)

Well, I'll make no great claims for 3.3, except that it's a lot less
buggy than 3.0. :-/
3.4 really should be a great improvement. The new C++ parser helps a
lot with C++ stuff, and quite a lot of us have made large infrastructure
improvements and code cleanups. Apart from bugs fixed by that
process, it's now a lot easier to track down many types of
bugs in 3.4 (there's a lot less cruft to look through). Of course, this
probably discourages people from looking for bugs in 3.3.
