I think this is OK, but can you guarantee that this change will work with older versions of the compiler, like 2.95.3 or 2.95.4 ?

It won't work with 2.95, but agree with Robert that we need to change at some point.
I will not accept changes that break compatibility if this can be avoided. Many people use older versions of the compiler, last but not least for reasons of stability. There must be support for these older toolchains as well.
Best regards,
