Recent traffic?  There's nothing in there that's substantive since... uh,
well, I got tired of looking back. =)

CXX is very cool, but it is still pushing the envelope of many C++
compilers.  From what I gather, recent egcs' do manage with it, and since
egcs is going to replace gcc, I expect that many platforms will be able to
"do" CXX relatively soon.

I vote to stay on the 1.6 track for now.
