As I said, 2.95 holds all its libraries, including libstdc++, in
/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.3-10.

I'm aware of it and that's why I'm asking. That would be the final release
of 3.3, able to coexist with 3.4. Then you could happily forget about 3.3.

This would make no sense if 3.4 is binary compatible with 3.3. Are
differences between 3.3 and 3.4 significant?
