MHO is that 1.7+gcc4 is already such a sweeping change (e.g.
"conservative" left the building sometime last year), that if we DO plan
on any more such sweeping changes before cygwin2.dll it's better to do
'em now.

OTOH, if we DON'T actually plan on any more such changes, then there's
no reason to make changes gratuitously, no matter how Just Mean We Are.

"Interesting" in the sense of the old Chinese curse [*], I assume?
