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.
