HI guys,

I have managed to get another build out. This time I left out
(cloog-)ppl, and thus the Graphite optimizations. These things just
kept bugging me, hard. I used GCC 4.6 from 20100918 (the 20100925 had
a bug in lto which made this feature unusable, as lto1.exe crashed
each time it was used). I did fix a particular evil bug concerning an
ICE when compiling Qt's WebKit:
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45580).

The x64 build is completely compiled with lto and wholeprogram
optimizations, the x86 toolchain has those options enabled and usable.
For the x64 build I first built a GCC 4.5.2 compiler with sezero's
orphaned source package. This allowed me to enable lto for the x64
build. I did not do this for the x86 build, but that shouldn't really
matter. I also built gcc using the "make profiledbootstrap" build
step, which, according to GCC themselves provides a 7% increase in
performance. I removed all *.la files to prevent libtool from getting
confused after relocation,

The object size bug (4.5+, affects most prominently wxWidgets
compilation) is in the process of being fixed, and therefore I did not
include any patching for this. Sorry for that. If there are any
problems, please let me know via this list.

Everything should be uploaded soon (+/- 1.5 hour).

Ruben
