Hi,

  I would love to see gdc-4.7 (ie. based on gcc 4.7) in Debian Sid 
ASAP (maybe it still on schedule to be included into next Ubuntu 
- Raring Ringtail).

  Currently, the gdc package is still at the pre-historic era of 
gcc 4.6.3:

http://packages.debian.org/sid/devel/gdc

and Ubuntu follows closely with:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/ko/raring/devel/gdc

while its gcc package is 4.7.2:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/ko/raring/gcc

Many thanks for any implication on that side.
