I am a native US citizen (well, caucasian ;-), and I don't get the reference. Maybe it's something regional, or perhaps something that only the older folks will get. Anyway, I think that he was trying to make is that it's all well and good to talk about doing the debugging, etc..., but the real question is who is sufficiently clueful and has the spare cycles to do all this work in such a short period of time? Frankly, I would be willing to bet large sums of money that it won't happen. Indeed, my vote would be to not attempt to make it happen, and allow for gcc 3.2.1 (or whatever) to be incorporated into -CURRENT after the 5.0-RELEASE.
