Should issue #1031 be invalid, then? Is there reason to suspect that
the warnings generated by whatever-you-want-to-call-unreleased-gcc are
bogus? (I mean, whether or not the warnings eventually go away
because the compiler's policy changes, they may still reveal problems
right now.)

I don't know the answers to these questions. It just strikes me that
the issue here isn't whether we should refer to the next GCC as "3.3",
but whether we should be treating its warnings as useful information
:-).
