It seems avr-libc 1.8.1 will not build with gcc 4.8.1, but vanilla gcc 4.9.1
works fine. I rolled my own .debs from the regular Debian gcc-4.9.1 sources
and vanilla 1.8.1 from the project website.

As I understand, the AVR toolchain on Debian is built from Atmel sources, but
these are currently out of date. It seems Atmel toolchain developers are now
actively submitting patches to the gcc project, before making a new version of
their own toolchain available. This begs the question, wouldn't it be better
if Debian avr- packages started using vanilla sources instead? It would help
developers stay more up to date, and avoid relying on patched third party 
sources.
