Not an expert, but...
At work, we have BSPs that ship with toolchains using 2.95, 3.0.x,
and 3.1.x. I'm not aware of any that yet ship with 3.2.x, but that
doesn't mean there aren't any, just that I don't know. "Convergence"
in the sense of "shipping the same version in all the BSPs" would
be nice, in theory, but it isn't even on the map in terms of
possibility. For us, the compiler doesn't stand alone, if you'll
pardon the pun. It depends heavily on GCC's s level of support for
the target, and how well the compiler, the kernel, and the C library
all play together.
