I will definitely consider this quite seriously. I'm always a little
stretched for time but gcc is just one thing to take care of (albeit several
packages) and I do have a lot of compiler experience. I'll spend some time at
the weekend reading all the gbs and packaging-related docs and rolling a set
of releasable gcc packages so I can get a feel for the amount of workload it's
likely to place on me and come back to the list with a definite answer Monday.
cheers,
