Apple apparently has a version of egcs-1.1.2 with AltiVec functionality added available from an Apple website. I have not received any contact from Apple about a timetable for contributing that work back to GCC. Hopefully all of Apple's changes eventually will be incorporated into the GCC public sources so that they do not need to maintain a divergent branch and can utilize GCC development more rapidly.
