That would need testing. At least they introduce no run-time penalty, it's purely a syntactic sugar. But I'm afraid we won't have time to test that now. At the moment we don't compile with -std=c++0x at all, so nullptr keyword is not recognized. You know what, feel free to use these features if you'd like. It's easy to search/replace and remove them it needed later. But anyway, NULL is quite ok in gcc - the compiler will issue a warning if NULL is used as an integer (in that example with overloaded function).
