Very little.  I wanted to wait to make sure immediate build system
breakage from libgcc had been resolved; at this point, it has. I need
to go back through this thread, revise the patch a little bit IIRC,
and then post it for approval.

I'm going to be travelling all next week, so expect this around the
last week of January.
