Hello Kai,

  That's very good news, ThX very much ;-) I'm currently debianizing
mingw-w64-4.4.0-1, which works very good for our projects.

  The following questions arose at this point:

1) Have you already applied the attached patch, which fixes the reference to the
symbol _ftime32(), which is really called _ftime() in msvcrt.dll ?

2) Can you recommend a stable binutils release or should I stick to the snapshot
included in mingw-w64-4.4.0-1 ?

3) Will your gcc-4.4.2 package use dwarf-2 exception handling like the packages
from www.mingw.org ?

4) Are there gcc-4.4-based snapshots available ?

   Best regards and TIA,

     Wolfgang
