Hi John,

It shouldn't affect us currently (4.7.1).  Even in the future -
it shouldn't have too much impact - as gm2 already requires g++ for
linking.  It appears that the core of gcc will be callable from C, so
gm2 will hopefully have much the same internal api.  Even if this were
untrue one could write C wrappers deep down in the interface between gm2
and gcc.

regards,
Gaius
