Many gcc-4.2.0 bugs should have been fixed, please bump to 4.2.1 as soon as possible.
the toolchain is aware of new gcc releases ... they dont get added immediately because bumping them takes time to verify

FYI, i just got told by a college, that gcc 4.2.0 has potential optimization bugs when compiling with -O2 or -O3 which is critical for us. i'm still looking for a reference for it.

gcc-4.2.1 work great here on an AMD Duron 800 and an AMD XP 2000+. both compiled gcc without problems. and i compiled a lot of other big and small sources without problems. only twinkle made trouble - problem unknown. but instead of twinkle i use 'talk' again ;-)

But the checking for this file should be done before compiling during downloading phase. So to my mind this ebuild is wrong.
i am not an ebuild-expert, but i wanted the new gcc ;-) and now i have the new gcc with the wrong ebuild... i always use the described way to create new ebuilds.
found no issues at the moment with it...
I just noted that mesa compiled with gcc 4.2.0 will make it unusable on my system (all gl-progs turn out to be black). r300-card. So it seems the code failures are really a problem in 4.2.0.

That is http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32544 and I believe Donnie has already commited a work-around.
Can understand not wanting to set an untested compiler loose on the general public, but I'm fairly surprised it's not in tree and masked or in the toolchain overlay... Anyone know the situation with that, is it just a manpower issue preventing it getting added to the overlay?
I would like to see the gcc 4.2.1 in the tree too
I'd also like to see 4.2.1 in portage sooner rather than later as it had quite a few bug fixes.

One can only assume that there is a lack of support in the herd and one person is having to work on the ebuild. Maybe one day we will have an official ebuild from the distro.
Created attachment 129234 [details] gcc-4.2.1.ebuild with all patches from 4.2.0 that still work I have made an ebuild that uses all the patches from the 4.2.0 ebuild that still work. Patches that fail are excluded.
I assume that instead of continuous naging, it might be better to try to get in touch with the toolchain herd, or to find out which patches from the set are still needed for 4.2.1 and which are already fixed upstream. (And to try to make the still-needed-not-applying patches apply.) Might be a tough task, but maybe you can even get into some overlay with that... Or maybe toolchain can give a rough ETE and whether helping hands or testers are needed?

You guys are quick to judge the toolchain herd. :P GCC 4.2.0 was buggy as hell and needed lots of fixups, so I can imagine that they are taking their time and researching what patches are needed and what's not. That and I am sure they have a life outside of Gentoo. ;) So, when GCC 4.2.1 hits the tree, I know it will be stable and ready to use. :)
I would suggest to concentrate work on gcc-4.2.2 which just had its first RC released. http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2007-09/msg00240.html
i do agree seems 4.2.2 will be out in about 1 week
