Obviously you're not interested in gcc evolutions. I suggest that you
take your browser to http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-3.4/changes.html#3.4.5
This is the last version which showed per-subsystem problem reports
before they used SVN. Just count the lines : 9 bugs fixed for C, 45
for C++. And when you read those bugs, you don't have the feeling of
reading a description of something that people make their code rely on.
