We can and probably should now that 2.10 is out. But there may also be subtle 
problems for C++ users who still use < 2.10 by doing this. But then again any 
serious C++ user already has a problem with using C++ templates if they don't 
upgrade to 2.10.

On a rather disturbing note, I discovered late last night some C++ programs 
crash when built under 2.10, but C programs run fine. I think I know what 
needs to be fixed, but when I do fix it I'll have to re-upload Binutils 2.10 
(sorry).
