With this patch I need to use bootstrap (because the > patch moves the attiny13a from avr2 to avr25), without it the avr-libc > builds fine here without bootstrap. I do. So the point is, when you apply a patch, then there is / may be a need to bootstrap? Can this also hold true for other tools? I for example never did so and experienced no problems until now.

Can you be more specific? Is far as i know i apply all patches and did not encounter this problem. From the present discussion you may have understood that the version has to be 2.59<=version<=2.62. But that point is addressed by a patch now (use mine or Eric's). What's the source of limitation?
