I meant be compatible on a source level, so that each distribution can just use its favorite compiler. Actually, even with sunCC the interface is not clear between Cstd (the default, traditional and far from the standard, requires a lot of porting work) and stlport4 (more standard, except for locale support). > BTW: how do you like to separate CC and g++ created libraries > in /usr/lib/? I did not mean to have both of them, just to let the distributor choose which one it prefers. But if we really want to have both, we could have a g++34 subdirectory for libraries that involve the g++ abi. Letting g++ use those automatically would be easy by modifying 2 lines in the specs. And putting them there would only be one extra argument to configure for programs using autoconf (and likely as easy for other build systems).
