I always wonder why mingw use so prehistoric version of gcc. Anyway, I agree that updaing gcc to 4.x is a good idea as new line represent much better quality and ISO conformance. The only question is which binaries to use.
As for linking we ship gcc with our ld which is a way faster than gcc ld (even the newset one)

Well, I was trying to use that particular GCC version, but ended with a bit erratic behaviour (it reported bugs for some files, then on another compile reported nothing).
That said, testing is required.
At the same time, situation with GCC is a bit crippled as it does not support TLS (__thread) variables -> U++/MT is broken. I can and will fix it, but that will mean locking allocator->much worse performance than MSC/Linux-GCC.
