of any ABI compatibility testing between the two compilers.
So if some library packages switch compilers and programs using those
libraries don't or vice versa, this proposal has quite high risks of
introducing hard to debug debugs.
Perhaps this proposal should be revisited in the future when there are
fewer scary ABI bugs.
That's not really a scary ABI bug. There's disagreement about a fairly
unusual case involving extension of 8 bit arguments and some issues with
128 bit types. I wouldn't consider either a show stopper for this proposal.
