[Bug 1246802] Re: STL std::nth_element bug (fixed upstream)

[Adam Conrad]

Hello Garth, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gcc-4.8 into saucy-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-4.8/4.8.1-10ubuntu9
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Bug description:
  The package llibstdc++-4.8 (4.8.1-10ubuntu8) has a nasty STL
  std::nth_element bug that has been fixed upstream, see
  http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58800. Could you release
  an update with the fix? It is a bad bug, i.e. it completely breaks
  some programs on Ubuntu 13.10 that use the STL.
