Not to me it wasn't. The statement you made was that you were delivering binutils *first*, because of the fact that in order to build gcc with --configure, you needed to supply paths to gas, etc. What I said is, that problem is a build dependency problem. You could deliver the final bits together (which IMO is the right thing to do if this case is primarily being done for benefit of gcc.) I'll also stand by Darren's comments... if you have this kind of dependency that is driving decisions in this case, then we need to see the entire case work for the big picture. That means that you probably need to submit a case for gcc4. IMO, it would probably be easiest to just *withdraw* this case, and submit a single combined case for gcc4 and any required binutils updates together. -- Garrett
