Try development snapshots. I'm not sure it's already fully supported
and, in fact, I remember there are some pending patches, but maybe
it's already sufficiently functional for you.

I don't think so. It's regarded as a known limitation of the latest
stable release, that's expected to be fixed in the next major release.
Of course you're free to search our Gnats database and submit a new
report if you find it's not a duplicate and feel like doing so, but
this is no guarantee that anything is going to happen in GCC, as it is
a purely volunteer effort. But you can help make sure this will be
done by the time of the next major release by funding this project
through any of the companies that offer support services for GCC.
