The build instructions for Dehydra can be found here:
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/Dehydra_GCC

All of the necessary patches have not yet been accepted into GCC trunk
sources, and we are currently still targeting GCC 4.3 (and GCC 4.2 on mac).
It is not clear that they will be approved in time for the 4.4 release;
before the actual plugin patches are accepted, the FSF wants to make a
change to the libgcc exception clause so that plugins cannot be used to
subvert the GPL license of GCC.
