As discussed in the meeting yesterday, CodeSourcery has a few MinGW patches that I had not merged into Linaro GCC.
I have now investigated these patches, and I'm fairly happy that most are not necessary for Linaro. They're mainly about interworking with Cygwin.
The one exception is this one: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2010-04/msg01214.html (and even that is primarily a GDB issue).

This was merged into mainline libiberty (GCC & GDB) just a couple of weeks ago. I agree this is clearly not necessary for GCC. I can backport it into Linaro GDB 7.2 if needed ...

Please do. It's landed upstream, is small, is low risk, and is easier to back port now than to track by other means.

I've checked this in now.
