Now, to be clear, what nice things would gcc-4.5 bring to our users?
There is a complete list here [0], but those ones are, in my opinion,
very nice:
- The new link time optimiser.
- Improved C++0x support.
- Plugins support.
My understanding is that lto in 4.5 is not quite there yet. Not that
I've tried it or anything.
I don't share your understanding. I tried it for some builds.
Maybe it works on small things, but I heard it doesn't work very well
for stuff like mozilla. 4.6 is supposed to get better.
well, mozilla is not the average package regarding complexity. It does work
well with medium size packages like the python interpreter, after modifying the
build system, showing no regressions in the python testsuite. so while 4.6 will
be better, 4.5 does work for many cases.
