Yes. I'm working on it, but the gcc_release script is not exactly
trivial to hack, and it's a critical piece of infrastructure, so I'm
applying changes incremently (and have them tested by the next weekly
snapshot).
After the change I just committed, I'll try to switch the next snapshot
to .bz2 only.
