Changes: GCC now supports newer versions of the NetBSD operating system, which 
use the ELF object file format. On x86 processors correct debugging 
information is generated from functions that have lines from multiple files 
(e.g. yacc output). A fix for whitespace handling in the -traditional 
preprocessor was made, which can affect Fortran Fixes to the exception 
handling runtime. There are more fixes for bad code generation in C++, a fix 
for shared library generation under AIX 4.3 Port of GCC to Tensilica's Xtensa 
processor contributed, and a fix for compiling the PPC Linux kernel (FAT fs 
wouldn't link).

This really isn't the forum to announce a new release of gcc, but we'd happily
accept an updated ebuild.
