At least qemu requires gcc-3.x to build.  I don't know about other
parts, but it's likely that entire OpenMoko builds fine with gcc-4.

Regarding qemu and gcc-4 see the qemu-devel archives
(http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel).  IIRC Debian or
some other distro has patches that make it build with gcc-4 (with some
tradeoffs, obviously).

Cheers,
Andrzej
