| Well, since you dismiss real bug fixes as bogus, and overrule changes

There was no bug fix.  A fix is provided by a working and tested patch. There
was none.  And I told you so this morning.

As we repeatedly said, Romain and I have no interest in supporting a compiler
not supported by R Core for R itself.  But you are of course free to release
VisualRcppPackTemplate or whatever.

Your repeated referral to the R community is amusing, given how you insulted
the community at large repeatedly and consistently. I am sure folks can't
wait to get back to you as you are just such a pleasure to work with.  

Oh, and I did I mention that you haven't updated cxxPack in seven months, not
even the trivial LinkingTo change that we asked you several times to use?

Funny how every other (CRAN) package using Rcpp seems to be working just
fine.  Guess we all must be doing something wrong.
