Oops, I meant 3.4.2, not 3.5.2.

Sorry if I sound like I'm going in circles, but there's still something 
about the versions I'm unclear on regarding your build process. Let me see 
if I can explain better...

There's two different GCC's involved:

A. The one that actually being invoked by the build process to build GCC. 
It's the one that's already installed and working on the system prior to 
attempting to build GDC.

B. The GCC sources that we're applying the D patches to. The one that is 
actually getting built.

For me:
A = 3.4.2
B = 4.1.2

If I'm understanding you correctly, yours is:
A = 3.4.2 or 3.4.5, depending on when in time
B = 3.4.2 or 3.4.5, depending on when in time

Is this correct?
