   - This interface hides implementation details (e.g. DIDerivedType, existence of compile unit etc..) that any front end should not know about.

 error_code + libsystem + PathV2 changes
-
+  The system_error header from C++0x was added.
+  * Use if (error_code ec = function()) to check for error conditions

+  * error_code::message returns a human readable description of the error.

+  PathV1 has been deprecated in favor of PathV2 (sorry I didn't finish
