I've made a tar.gz archive and placed it here:
d.gpio.dk/dl/STM32F4xx.tar.gz

I'm using STM32F407 Discovery board and a bunch of bare-metal 
boards I designed (most of them are on breadboards)

Initially, I've only made files for the F4 family:
STM32F401, STM32F405, STM32F407, STM32F411, STM32F415, STM32F417, 
STM32F427, STM32F429, STM32F437 and STM32F439.

I only have STM32F407, STM32F427 and STM32F429 myself though, so 
I will not be able to test on the other devices in this family.

You'll need to modify the exception vector table, which should be 
quite straightfoward (but may take some time, because it's a 
line-by-line job).

But before you start doing a lot of manual work, look at the 
template files and the generator script. The generator script is 
actually dong some of the hard work for you. Just list the 
exception vectors in the correct order in a file called 
stm32f103.txt for instance, then add this file to the 
bin/generate and run that scipt.
