Since you are an Arch user, I'd prefer using that for code exchange,
i.e. once I have the archive ready, you branch off the --std category
and add your code. I can't really tell when the archive will be ready,
since I'm currently think about a way to conviniently integrate Arch's
build-config and automake, so you can pull (parts of) the library into
your project and distribute it with that, whith autodetection if the
parts you need are already installed, in which case the installed ones
will be used (that's very brief and rough, but I hope you get the
idea).
