On debian-release [1], Matthias writes that If anything goes well, and a large amount of build failures are fixed, I plan to make GCC 4.9 the default for the C/C++/ObjC/Obj-C++ frontends at the end of May, beginning of June. I doubt we can get Perl 5.20 in sid by that time, so I suppose we need to do something about 5.18 too. The options I see are - explicitly use gcc-4.8 - apply the patch by Marek Polacek that upstream rejected in favour of -fwrapv (AIUI) - backport the 5.20 -fwrapv changes in Configure - force feed -fwrapv to ccflags Configure invocation in debian/config.debian The last one seems easiest.
