I know, it should apply there cleanly as well, but I need to test it...

The gcc 4 relase from MinGW project seem to have been in the same
state for quite a while.
I wonder when they will change it.

Any special reason why we don't want to use a newer binutils for gcc-3.4.5?

I don't remember seeing any problems with that, but maybe I have just
been lucky on that issue :-)

The reason I pulled in this release was actually that I had a failure
with ld from the old binutils when building mingw-runtime.
So unless something points against setting 2.19.1 as default, I think we should.

Ah, sorry.
