Cristian,
Thank you for your patch, and I'm sorry to hear that
the project's requirements aren't something that you
can agree with.
If you don't want to contribute a patch please feel
free to file a bug report to ensure that another
developer fixes this issue when GCC 4.8 is released.
Cheers,
Carlos.
