the 4.0.x compilers(vanilla non-patched) have many problems with making anything usefull. And I dislike ANY patching of vanilla stuff... if you can't make something decent don't release it to the world when it's half broken. There are bugs and then there is brokeness... I accept bugs since no app is truly debuged untill all it's users are dead... But I don't accept outright brokeness... I've heard reports that it can't even build linux properly...
There's nothing wrong with releasing software with known problems as long as it is appropriately marked as unstable. I don't think anyone should be expecting gcc-4.0.2 to produce correct executables at this stage. The problem comes when some distros start using it too early.
