I had no issues compiling a few different projects with this release, 
however enabling this configure flag means that linking C++ with -static 
does not work because libstdc++.a then requires VTV symbols.  Also, note 
that neither Fedora's nor (AFAICS) Debian's native gcc enable this 
feature, so I don't know how much exposure it has received yet.

I would recommend rebuilding a 5.4.0-2 without this configure flag, and 
releasing it as stable.

Until this is stable and mingw-based C++ packages have been recompiled, 
-D_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0 can be used as a workaround.
