One issue that might affect many some is that COM doesn't work.

pending review I guess, but probably won't go into 4.2.
Does this effect XPCOM meaning Mozilla and friends will not compile ?
It is triggered anywhere multiple inheritance is combined with stdcall.
Since I believe XPCOM uses stdcall on Windows (but "cdecl" on other
targets), I believe the answer here is 'Yes, Mozilla will not compile.'
Mozilla is built using Microsoft cl on Windows. And if 'cdecl' is used on
Unix then there is no problem with XPCOM and GCC 4.2.0 RC3.
