<para>Achieving link- and run-time coexistence is not a trivial
- implementation task. To achieve this goal we required a small
- extension to the GNU C++ compiler (since incorporated into the C++11 language specification, described in the GCC Manual for the C++ language as
- <link xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Namespace-Association.html#Namespace-Association">namespace
- association</link>), and a complex organization of debug- and
- release-modes. The end result is that we have achieved per-use
- recompilation but have had to give up some checking of the
- <code>std::basic_string</code> class template (namely, safe
- iterators).
