You may have noticed that I have created a new BZR/Launchpad branch for Linaro
GCC 4.6:

https://code.launchpad.net/~linaro-toolchain-dev/gcc-linaro/4.6

Up until now, this has not been buildable due to unfixed bugs. However, upstream
GCC have now straightened out the problems, so I have pushed a buildable version
into the branch.

I shall attempt to keep this branch as up-to-date as I can (at least, I will
once the holiday season and January travel are over), but I'll only push updates
if they build for me, so hopefully the branch should remain fairly stable, at
least for our purposes.

Note that so far I've only tested build-ability. Right now I'm not making any
promises about the quality of the compiler.

At some point, we'll want to use this branch to hold our own patches (both those
that will never go upstream, and those that are queued for GCC 4.7), so it will
diverge from upstream 4.6 a bit. For the moment, it's merely a mirror.

Fyi, native gcc-4.6 packages based on upstream trunk, installable on maverick and natty can be found at

  deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-toolchain-r/test/ubuntu maverick main
  deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-toolchain-r/test/ubuntu maverick main

The armel build should finish tomorrow. Testsuite results for arm and thumb mode are included in the build log and in the package's doc dir.

Issues on ARM are:

 - gccgo build failure (http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=46958)

 - gnat build failure
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-snapshot/20101215-0ubuntu1/+build/2098617

 - quadmath support (needed, wanted?)
