I'll point out that some time after the 1.5 branch we'll be switching
to a newer GCC (though that may be contingent on unbreaking a lot of stuff.)

BTW, given that the branch is going to be Very Very Soon, perhaps you
should just wait for it before doing your import, to make sure nothing
outside your area gets broken...

It isn't clear that *we* should be using an ABI different from everone
else's on ARM, but that's a broader issue. :)

Again, we have to upgrade at some point on all platforms...
