Well, last time I tried to use g++ after unzipping GDC on top of the TDM GCC install, it failed terribly. Don't really remember how, but I think it was runtime linking issues. And no, we won't necessarily see GDC in the TDM GCC setup. Firstly, that's years away because of how slowly GCC goes through versions, and secondly, Go has been merged as of GCC 4.6, and it isn't included in TDM.
