It shouldn't come as a surprise as the patches I submitted for FSF gcc only went into gcc trunk for gcc 4.4 and later... http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-11/msg00333.html http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-11/msg00428.html http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-11/msg00811.html http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-11/msg01515.html http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-11/msg01532.html http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-12/msg00054.html http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-12/msg00177.html Considering that gcc 4.2.x is currently depreciated and unmaintained by upstream, it is rather pointless to keep it when gcc44 works as well across all architectures. The only reason Apple is stuck at 4.2.1 is because of the GPLv3 licensing issues.
