[Mingw-users] mingw32 vtable_thunks as defaults?

[<de...@lm...>]

Hello,

Does anybody knows why the vtable_thunks are not the default
in mingw32 as in LINUX?

I run into the multiple inheritance problem (wrong "this" pointer)
and it was hard to find this problem in a large project.

e.g.:

Wrong "this" pointer in my_class::overflow():
class my_class : public ostream, public streambuf { ... }

but this works:
class my_class : public streambuf , public ostream { ... }
(streambuf as no offset to my_class, there is no need for a "this" pointer
correction.)

Thank you
