Build report for GCC 4.4.1/i386-unknown-freebsd7.2/binutils 2.15

[Loren James Rittle <rittle at latour dot labs dot mot dot com>]

GCC 4.4.1 was successfully built, checked and installed on
i386-unknown-freebsd7.2 (--enable-languages=c,c++ to save time only).
Note: Other than specifying details related to binutils (--with-gnu-as
--with-as=/usr/bin/as --with-gnu-ld --with-ld=/usr/bin/ld), the
default configure options were used after installing gmp, mpfr, ppl
and cloog [*].  This build used the system's copy of binutils (based
on GNU binutils 2.15 circa 2004-05-23):

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2009-08/msg01524.html

[*] Installed from the FreeBSD ports system with system compiler gcc-4.2.1:
    /usr/ports/math/libgmp4 [4.3.1]
    /usr/ports/math/mpfr [2.4.1]
    /usr/ports/devel/ppl [0.10.2]

    Installed by hand since not yet present in the FreeBSD ports system:
    cloog-ppl-0.15.7.tar.gz [from http://gcc.gnu.org/]

Summary across all recent testing of GCC 4.4.1 on this platform: (1)
boehm-gc working with binutils 2.15, 2.16.1, not with 2.19.1 (current
plan: determine root cause and likely fix/update binutils 2.19.1 or
boehm-gc's configuration for this platform); (2) libmudflap results
looking poor, libmudflap -pthread results looking very poor (current
plan: either fix or disable for this platform); (3) most gcc/g++
failures due to FP issues or (missing) builtins (i.e. long-standing).
