Hi Martin.  I think you should build the development sources of gcc and
use it to compile the GNU binutils with -Wc++-compat.  -Wc++-compat is
much tougher in development gcc.  I think, perhaps optimistically, that
there would be few objections to fixing anything found by that warning.

In any case, just go ahead and propose the patches.  People are
infinitely more likely to comment on a specific proposed patch than they
are to comment on a general question about a possible change.
