Yes - that's what is so confusing. They seem to match in the Angstrom conf:

#Everybody else can just use this: 
ANGSTROM_GCC_VERSION                             ?= "4.5"

ANGSTROM_BINUTILS_VERSION                        ?= "2.20.1"

PREFERRED_VERSION_binutils                       ?= "${ANGSTROM_BINUTILS_VERSION}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_binutils-cross                 ?= "${ANGSTROM_BINUTILS_VERSION}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_binutils-crosssdk              ?= "${ANGSTROM_BINUTILS_VERSION}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_binutils-cross-canadian        ?= "${ANGSTROM_BINUTILS_VERSION}"

PREFERRED_VERSION_gcc                            ?= "${ANGSTROM_GCC_VERSION}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_gcc-cross                      ?= "${ANGSTROM_GCC_VERSION}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_gcc-cross-initial              ?= "${ANGSTROM_GCC_VERSION}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_gcc-cross-intermediate         ?= "${ANGSTROM_GCC_VERSION}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_gcc-cross-canadian             ?= "${ANGSTROM_GCC_VERSION}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_gcc-crosssdk                   ?= "${ANGSTROM_GCC_VERSION}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_gcc-crosssdk-initial           ?= "${ANGSTROM_GCC_VERSION}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_gcc-crosssdk-intermediate      ?= "${ANGSTROM_GCC_VERSION}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_gcc-runtime                    ?= "${ANGSTROM_GCC_VERSION}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_gcc-runtime-nativesdk          ?= "${ANGSTROM_GCC_VERSION}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_libgcc                         ?= "${ANGSTROM_GCC_VERSION}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_libgcc-nativesdk               ?= "${ANGSTROM_GCC_VERSION}"
