seems to provide some evidence to the contrary. configure says it finds
gcc 4.4, but b2g 'helpfully' runs make with -s so we can't know what
actually happens...
Judging by the tinderbox behavior I've observed with nullptr stuff in the past
-- including patches that dumped the compiler version in tbpl logs and then
aborted the build -- I think the compiler on tinderbox for at least some kinds
of b2g stuff is some weird amalgam that doesn't map to the gcc version
numbering the world uses, with some backported patches for various things, or
something.
Yeah, I have the same impression.

Actually there is a chance for us to switch to a more modern (NDK) gcc
in 1.5, but of course that will not affect the toolchain used for ICS as
long as we need to support that.
