The alternative it to simply repack the existing linaro cross-toolchain sources, but them we get to keep doing that for new releases, and we have gratuitous extra copies of gcc sources and corresponding differences between A* and M* toolchains/versions.
I'm working on this process at the moment; I figure that having a stable and reliable compiler will provide a good starting point while we sort out how to unify the compiler source code bases.
A simple 'diff' from the linaro q2 release from current Debian 4.7 compiler sources is something over 700k lines at present; dumping that into a package doesn't exactly seem like a good idea.
