Still I feel PR or INC_PR bumps of the affected gcc recipes is
appropriate, if only to fix it for distro's that do not immediately
bump DISTRO_PR.
We have quite some distro's and not all are maintained equally well,
so I can imagine it'll take some time for them to bump
Actually some distro's seem orphaned, so for those it might never
happen and bumping the GCC PR's at least will give them the fix too.

Thinking of it let's see how many distro's actually use DISTRO_PR:
../../conf/distro/angstrom-2008.1.conf:DISTRO_PR = ".6"
../../conf/distro/kaeilos-2010.conf:DISTRO_PR = ".1"
../../conf/distro/kaeilos.conf:DISTRO_PR = ".5"
../../conf/distro/angstrom-2010.x.conf:DISTRO_PR = ".7"
../../conf/distro/shr.conf:DISTRO_PR = ".5"

So that is 5 out of the 32 recipes.
Even one of your own (angstrom-2008.1-legacy.conf) does ot use DISTRO_PR

Very nice to keep the users of those 27 distro's in the cold!
Not.
