GCC 5.2.0 is an important milestone that introduces numerous new features, such as -std=gnu11 as default mode for the C programming language instead of -std=gnu89, support for a new ABI in libstdc++, the C++ runtime library, as well as removal of the CLooG library from the Graphite framework, which now requires only ISL 0.14 or 0.12.2.
