   I would go ahead and push them out. Ping me if there is any breakage but they
should be fine. My spare time has been soaked up with FSF gcc development. We
just eliminated all darwin-specific regressions in Link Time Optimization and
I enabled it as the default today. We also are looking at fixing the gcj 
failures under
darwin9 for gcc 4.6 as well as perhaps using the compact unwinder under
darwin10 instead of the older compatibility unwinder. We also have been
making changes so the the symlinks for libSystem are ignored during linkage
(such that a known order of linkage is always present...ie -lSystem last).
The rational for that change is to make sure that when the same symbol exists
in both libgcc_ext and libSystem (but is not marked as a magical symbol like
those in libgcc_s.10.4/10.5) the FSF gcc one is used. This came about from
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42333 where the libSystem
___divdc3 call from http://compiler-rt.llvm.org/ is imprecise. Unfortunately
Apple deems this not interesting enough to fix. Before our rationalization
of the linkage, this bug would come or go depending if -lm was appended
(which promoted libSystem to the front of the linkage).
