Not knowingly, Longterm3 branch claims "avoiding C++14" but Mitchell could have 
made a mistake, but since he has retired the branch its not going to be fixed 
if something did sneak in.

@b4n to explain, the 4.8 _compiler_ may be "full featured" but the standard 
library wasn't standards compliant for `std::string` until "In the GCC 5.1 
release libstdc++ introduced a new library ABI that includes new 
implementations of std::string and std::list." so its egregious of GCC to claim 
its compliant when even something as common as `std::string` is not compliant 
in the associated library, so who knows what else isn't.  I'll be ranting again 
in a minute because it has always irked me that GCC ignores the state of the 
standard library shipped with it, even though its required to make it work. 
:grin:

@mckaygerhard "i'm tyred of that shit! "too old" is the compiler provided" is 
the reason for my gentle rant, its not so nice when people rant at you is it?  
So please don't swear, make demands, or demeaning statements in __bold__.  As 
Geany is a volunteer project people contribute what they want to contribute, 
and things like that just make them want to not help you.
