I see. Forget about 4.0.x then. Supposing that support for i686-apple-darwin is added for the 4.1 series, would that be enough motivation to split 4.1 apart from 4.2? I've noticed the .patch work for your 4.2 package, mostly in the configure department. Has anyone looked into what it would take to at least build 4.1 on Intel? (If only I had my hands on and Intel Mac, I could test it out fairly easily...) I might poke around on gcc.gnu.org to see what's been done.
