Right; I just wanted to wait for the snapshot to suceed.

The change below
 - changes the references from .gz to .bz2,
 - adds a note on where to find the diff files (which is an improvement),
 - simplifies the note on not using unannounced snapshots, and
 - removes documentation of the gcc_latest_snapshot tag.
