[oe] Building ubuntu/gcc-4_2-branch to get GCJ for arm EABI

I'm not having any luck with GCC 4.3 and I expect to hit more GCC 4.3
problems in OE.
Since the 4.2.3 toolchain seems to build a nicely working root
filesystem without trouble, I'm still very much in favor of using the
Ubuntu-patched GCC 4.2.3.

Matthias Klose (gcc maintainer for Debian/Ubuntu) says that the 4.2.3
Ubuntu version should produce runnable binaries (e.g. testsuite runs
without error), so there must be something wrong in my particular
build.

Is anyone (Robert?) willing to run a build and test a hello world so
we can see if the error is consistent or specific for my build
environment/target hardware?
I've put my current bb-files on http://www.matthijs.net/gcc/ including
patches dir (in tar.gz).

Thanks,
Matthijs
