I do not know in details. However, Benjamin Linder uses this gcc-4.3.0-TDM for octave-mingw.
The candidate release of gcc-4.3.0 on MINGW includes some mispackaging so that manual corrections are
required to use.

For my experience on cygwin, the gcc-4.3.2 is better than gcc-4.3.0.
(My own build)
So that I thought that gcc-4.3.2 is better to use. 

The latest candidate release of mingw in the official site is still gcc-4.3.0.
However, the latest release of TDM is gcc-4.4.0-sjlj.

>From my experience, the binaries built by gcc-4.3.2-TDM are faster than those of gcc-4.3.0 even the
same optimizing option.  In addtion,  gcc-4.3.2-TDM produces more stable binaries than those prodeced
by gcc-4.3.0-TDM.

All I told from my experiences. I do not know any technical reasons.
