Got as far as downloading a huge .tar.xz file and extracting

I have a gcc-7.3.0 folder now. Is that the correct version
number ?
Next, the script file setup-gcc.sh comes up with the error
message
"found gcc version 7
This version of GCC (7) is not supported."
It's looking for a patch file with a different name, based on
version number. I have patch files patch-*8.patch currently,
mismatch against the check for 7.
Not sure where to go from here.
git checkout gdc-7
GCC releases are in separate branches for cleanliness and ease of
maintenance.
