Absolutely NOT.

Forget the current gcc packages, they're history. We're about to
upgrade to 4.7 and we anyways need another rebuild before it goes
stable. If we ship all the updated prereqs now, each built against the
newest gmp, then 4.7.2-2 can be built against them and we won't have
this problem from here on out.
