Steven,


Since the only objection raised was the too-newiness of GCC 4.9.2/5.0, what
would you consider a good time-line for removal?

I haven't heard any "over my dead body" objections, so I guess that trying
to remove it while no distribution was shipping the compiler that would make
it possible was premature.

Although, on the other hand, I'd be happy if we can have a reasonable date
(that is before my kid goes to college), preferably even before the next
LSF/MM so that we could have a mission accomplished thingie with a round
of beers and commemorative t-shirts.

Perhaps give it 2 years? With fair notice that it will soon be gone?

In 2 years I should be up to gcc 4.9 ;-)

I still need to test it out.
