VOS_NAMESPACE etc. stuff, e.g.), we will likely need macros for new
features that can be enabled for compilers that already understand them,
without breaking the code for legacy compilers.
I believe the Mozilla guys augment

Defining them to 'virtual' or even empty would do, if they are not

Hello,
However, given that override and final will only make it into GCC 4.7
(according to http://wiki.apache.org/stdcxx/C++0xCompilerSupport), it
according to gcc.gnu.org too..
but since it seems that MSCV (according the same wiki) supports it /
will support it, why not just wait a bit and
