I fully agree with Simon. There is no point in doctoring around with an inherently broken approach, and to waste developer cycles tracking changes to gcc and so forth. Gladly, we have two technologies ready (the new backend and LLVM) that have the potential to significantly improve the current situation. Let's spend developer cycles on these instead.
