No, it cannot. We want to be:
a) binary compatible with other 3.3.x compilers
b) binary compatible with 3.2.x
In addition to this -fabi-version=0 is a moving target, it changes quite
often and there are several thing which are still going to change
(and not just things which happen rarely, but things which will matter
in almost every single C++ object file).
