Not much more for the language, I reckon. Anything that will break code.
* AFAIK, the only new feature that needs to be done is the change to
RAII syntax.
* Rounding out a few of the recent features, especially IFTI.
* Deprecate all undesirable features. I hope that this includes implicit
declaration of printf, and reckless use of the comma operator.
* No bugs in bugzilla of 'normal' or higher severity.
(In practice, I'm now finding the biggest annoyance with the compiler is
the way it dumps reams of incorrect error messages when it encounters a
template any time after the first error).
Of course, the library's a different story...
