Public bug reported:

gcc 4.7.0 fixes a bug (http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24163
) that Crypto++ 5.6.1 was inadvertently relying on
(http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/cryptopp/ticket/14 ). This has been
discovered by the Fedora project upgrading to a 4.7.0 prerelease
(http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2011-December/160723.html
) as well as by the pycryptopp project (https://tahoe-
lafs.org/trac/pycryptopp/ticket/78 ). In the pycryptopp project we've
written a patch for our embedded copy of Crypto++ which fixes it when
pycryptopp is compiled with the option to "use your own embedded copy of
Crypto++".

(This doesn't *actually* affect Ubuntu yet as Ubuntu isn't using gcc 4.7
yet, but opening a ticket against Ubuntu's packaging of Crypto++ is the
only way I could figure out how to make a ticket on launchpad so that I
could link those other tickets. lifeless on IRC suggested this.)
