Success is measured via the testsuite so I would really like to know what sort of
results you managed. Please.

I have extensive experience with this however I won't package nor aid in
the distribution of a thing which is untested. I have GCC 4.7.2 built over and
over on Solaris and no way would I release them to the unsuspecting public
without a reasonable public testsuite.
