gdb will drop support for building with a C compiler any week now, and even though we're starting out with C++03, just like gcc, it'd be great to require C++11 (or later). Having gcc itself switch to C++11 too would make proposing it for gdb so much easier... So +1 from me, FWIW. :-) > > I use the system gcc 4.4.7 on RHEL to build a newer cross compiler...
