+Following are a few modifications to the library that unfortunately
+are incompatible with previous versions of the library, but which we
+deem necessary for the future maintainability of the
+library. Unfortunately, some of these changes will require
+modifications to application programs. We apologize for the
+inconvenience this causes.

+<h3>General</h3>
+
+<ol>
+ <li>
+ <p>Fixed: The step-33 tutorial program can not be built with GCC versions
+ 4.5.x. There are in fact two problems, on that pertains to uses of
+ <code>std::make_pair</code> that don't work any more with the upcoming
+ C++ 1x standard that GCC 4.5.x already follows, and some in which the
+ Trilinos package Sacado is incompatible with GCC 4.5.x, at least up to
+ Trilinos version 10.4.0. While the latter problem can only be fixed in
+ future Trilinos versions, at least the former problem is solved in step-33.
+ <br>
+ (WB 2010/07/18)
+ </p>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Fixed: GCC version 3.4.0 failed to compile the file
+ <code>deal.II/source/numerics/matrices.cc</code> with
+ an internal compiler error. This has
+ now been worked around.
+ <br>
+ (WB 2010/07/15)
+ </p>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Fixed: A problem in the Makefiles caused error messages when
+ building under CygWin.
+ <br>
+ (GK 2010/07/12)
+ </p>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Fixed: GCC version 3.3.x failed to compile the files
+ <code>lac/include/lac/precondition_block.h</code>,
+ <code>deal.II/source/multigrid/mg_dof_handler.cc</code> and
+ <code>examples/step-34/step-34.cc</code>. These problems have
+ now been worked around.
+ <br>
+ (WB 2010/07/12)
+ </p>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Fixed: Some older 3.x versions of GCC crashed compiling the functions in
+ namespace DoFRenumbering::boost. There is now a configuration time test
+ that checks that the compiler accepts the constructs in question. If the
+ compiler does not, then these functions are disabled.
+ <br>
+ (WB 2010/07/01)
+ </p>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Fixed: Linking with more than one of the deal.II 1d, 2d, or 3d libraries
+ when using static libraries did not work. This is now fixed. However, due to
+ GCC bug <a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10591"
+ target="_top">10591</a>, GCC versions prior to and including 4.1.x will
+ still not work. Working with shared libraries was not and is not affected
+ by this problem.
+ <br>
+ (WB 2010/07/01)
+ </p>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Fixed: GCC version 4.0.1 had a bug that prevented it from compiling
+ release 6.3.0 because it apparently had an infinite loop allocating
+ memory when compiling <code>fe_values.cc</code> in optimized mode. This
+ problem had been fixed in GCC 4.0.2, but some versions of Mac OS X still use
+ this GCC version in their Xcode environment. In any case, the code in
+ deal.II has been changed to avoid this problem.
+ <br>
+ (WB 2010/06/30)
+ </p>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Fixed: Configuring with an external BOOST version did not work when
+ using shared libraries since the test ran in the wrong order with respect
+ to another configure test. This is now fixed.
+ <br>
+ (Bradley Froehle 2010/06/29)
+ </p>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>
+ Fixed: deal.II release 6.3.0 did not compile with Trilinos versions 9.x and
+ 10.0. This is now fixed.
