>Description:
Consider turning -findirect-dispatch on by default.  It solves some serious problems with compatibility of classes, e.g. adding/removing methods or changing method order.

The obvious drawback is decreased performance.  However some studies have shown the impact to be minimal, and -fno-indirect-dispatch can get the old behavior.
