Yes that is the state of play with gcc-4.1.1, do you need 4.1.1 or can
you use 3.2.3?
my idea was to include gcc4 as alternative into the windows installer,
keeping the 3.2.3 as default. but advanced user could try and test the
new version.

The way the current GCC 4.1.1 code interacts with binutils to pass
device information is different from 3.2.3, so you would need two
binutils packages as well as two GCC packages in the installer. The new
way of interacting seemed like a good idea at the time, but now I think
it was a bad choice. Despite the need to add every new CPU to the tools,
my vote is to keep with the scheme we use in 3.2.3.
