Is this really a problem? It affects only a private header file in detail/ no user should use. The changelog isn't very verbose but "Disable sync use for arm and hppa." could be justified if the previous code was just buggy or unsupported (no need to keep the some compilation bug for a new version as in the old one).
Well, I don't know the story behind that change, but if the 1.35 version compiles...
It doesn't (on ARM and HP PA-RISC). (Actually it compiles but doesn't link.)
Does that mean that if GCC adds support for the functions used the sync counted base it'll create an ABI incompatibility? Which isn't a real problem, but such fun.
