If the decision is made to create a new parallel-installable ABI,
please consider also making an ABI break in libsigc++ to fix several
bugs. The worst bug is that disconnection of slots takes O(N) time and
can lead to extremely bad performance:

Another possibility is replacing libsigc++ with a Boost library
(Boost.Signals or Boost.Signals2).
