I think this is an excellent suggestion.  In the future I'll watch out
for ABI changing C++ patches and will link them from the respective
changes.html page.  Janis, would you mind also keeping an eye on that? ;-)

If the libstdc++ folks could provide as a pointer whenever the change
the ABI, that would be great as well.
