No, I am a Mingw developer and I put binaries at mingw's SF site..

Please, if you want me to stay involved in this discusion,send posts to
mingw-users at sourceforge.net.

I have no intention of "fixing" gcc-3.3.x.  My main interest is 4.0, but I will
probably backport some changes from 4.0 branch into next gcc 3.4.4 mingw
release.  If you have specific examples of things that are broken on 3.4.x with
mingw please submit a bug report.  See
