WHY??  3.2->3.3 is a major version release, so ABI changes are allowed.

For FreeBSD we would like to see all known C++ ABI bugs fixed in 3.3.0.

It is not too late for us to move from 3.2 -> 3.3.  In fact we've had so
many problems with our update to 3.2 from 3.1-prerelease that we may have
to go to 3.3 anyway.

The proposals for a switch to choose the C++ ABI sound excellent to
FreeBSD.  I don't care if the default ABI is the 3.2 one, or the "bug
free" one -- I can easily set what we want in config/freebsd-specs.h.

A -Wabi in 3.2.1 would also be well received by FreeBSD as we can use
that to help decided if we should move to 3.3 for our 5.0 release.
