Put on your smoking jackets: New Parrot Smoker

[Jonathan Leto]

Howdy,

I just added the ability to test under g++ as well.

Are there particular versions of gcc/g++ that we want to test against?
Pre-compiled binaries of many versions are available on the compile
farm.

We are currently only smoking against gcc/g++ 4.3.2.
