Umm... the compiler update to gcc-3.4.2 went into CURRENT and will be
in 5.3-RELEASE. STABLE is still 4.10-STABLE (for a few more weeks at
least), and it's still using gcc 2.95.4.
As a matter of policy 4.10-STABLE isn't going to have any disruptive
upgrades of major software systems, unless that's the only way to
solve a security problem. You can update to the latest 4-STABLE
without worrying too much about stuff suddenly stopping working.
There will be a sendmail 8.12.x to 8.13.x upgrade involved if you
update from July 24th sources, but that's relatively minor, and
sendmail should happily carry on working with no corrective action
necessary.
Cheers,
Matthew
