Codegen and compile time in 4.2 are significantly better, and gcc-llvm  
is better on top of that. I would say it's pretty worth it.

I am in favor of more aggressive dropping of older operating systems.  
Adium is a free product developed by a bunch of volunteers in our  
spare time for fun. Anything that makes things unfun (operating  
systems we don't use, for example) should be terminated with maximum  
prejudice. Old versions will continue to work, life will go on.
