Apple does not use a GPLv3 version of GCC. All GPL sources used in the
iPhone, are, as far as I know, available at
http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/iPhone2.1/ (perhaps also
other locations at http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource).

If there are sources that you feel are missing, filing a bug at
http://bugreporter.apple.com is probably your best bet.

And, yes, I feel bad for replying to the list on this when it has
already been stated that it is off-topic.
