warning: multi-line string literals are deprecated

I wonder how much code I've seen in the last while (Emacs for example)
that uses this one.

I just can't keep up with these improvements. :-)

3.2, the latest greatest that ships with red hat. The API changed too,
which caused headaches for bproc etc.

They are easy enough to fix:
"multi-line 
string"
becomes:
"multi-line \n"
"string"

Which is actually easier to get the indentation correct with.

The API changed, or the ABI changed?

The API should be stable.  And only for C++ should the ABI have noticeably
changed.

it's the C++ ABI that changed. It's likely that this one changes again
with the gcc 3.2.1 release :-/

I don't have much problem with 3.1 (which only differs form 3.2 by some 
C++ ABI stuff).
