Ciao, Michael. Hello,

Thanks for clarifying... I do have a few questions to ask: Will GCC 4.6 be included in OpenSuSE 11.4 (Even in the Evergreen project)? (is that what you meant by "older distros.") , Would I need to keep devel:gcc to continue to receive bug and security fixes? , I'm also concerned about stability and security, is GCC 4.6 relatively safe? Unfortunately I can't wait until 4.7 as I have other projects postponed until this particular issues is resolved. Thanks I've upgraded to GCC 4.6: gcc -v Using built-in specs.

I've physically checked, plugin headers are still missing, there are no gcc-plugin.h and various other headers packaged with GCC 4.6.
