Odd, I didn't see such a request, and would have commented. I've seen
this issue before, and almost without fail it introduces problems for a
project.

Can we get back at least one jenkins validation build using gcc 4.6?
Keeping one with 4.8 also would be handy, but without a 4.6 one running
things will build up time-killing issues over and over. We can't really
afford that.


And if it comes down to just issues regarding writing tests, developers
can contact me directly for help. I feel keeping good tests going is
critical for project velocity and have worked extensively in the past to
help others with such.

Thanks!
