Ada, Java, ObjC are affected as well as C++. Also, note that any C++ code that uses iostreams or STL will be using exceptions. Oh yes, and new/delete use exceptions.
That is, any C++ code. 'Kay.
But garden variety C should not be affected. Linking to w32api dll's certainly isn't affected.
FWIW, C++ optimisation is so much better with gcc-3.3 than with 3.2 it would probably pay to recompile C++ libs anyway, even if the exception model hadn't changed
That's fine by me (although Ralf will probably be a little torqued; qt & kde ...) -- I just wanted to know if I had to recompile all of my packages, which are mostly library-providers, AGAIN for the fourth time in less than a month.
At which point it would've gotten ugly.
But, it appears that I don't have to do that, except for ncurses (cygncurses++7.dll). So I'm happy...
