I believe that these days they should be removed, rather than updated. Provding them was more important before they became more popular (and GNU programs in two cases actually). Note that the versions there strictly match the minimal versions listed at http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html and sadly some newer versions cause issues, for example on SPARC. Gerald
