no, only the upstream tarball is used from gcc-4.1-source. the patches are used from the gcj-4.1 source. The patches in gcc-4.1-source are needed to build cross compilers, based on gcc-4.1-source. > A build failure on arm is also the only thing keeping this updated version > of gcj-4.1 from being hinted into testing, though that seems to have been an > OOD error on the buildd; given back now. yes, thanks.
