Summary: libgfortran symbol version node bumped unnecessarily
Product: gcc
Version: 4.6.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: libfortran
AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
ReportedBy: jb@gcc.gnu.org
As pointed out by Janus Weil at
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/fortran/2011-02/msg00298.html
in 4.5 we have symbol version 1.2. The new symbols for 4.6 should thus be in
version node 1.3. However, for some reason 4.6 has added both 1.3 and 1.4,
which is unnecessary. We should remove the 1.4 node and merge the symbols into
the 1.3 node.
OTOH this change would mean that people would need to recompile code compiled
with the pre-release 4.6.

I'd say this is too late to change it now, the benefit isn't that big and the
pain that would be caused by it is large.

Yes, I'm leaning that way as well. FWIW, from looking at commit logs and old
mails, it seems 1.4 was added due to some confusion with symbol versioning and
ABI compatibility.
In any case, closing as wontfix. If anyone comes up with a convincing argument
why this should be fixed, please reopen (and, be quick about it as 4.6 is going
to be released quite soon I think, and after that we certainly can't remove a
symbol node in a released branch).
