Have you tried building a kernel with gcc-3.4.1 yet?

Is there a more upto date .dat/patches dir for gcc3.4?

Nope.


The snapshots on
gcc.gnu.org are more upto date - I've hacked the .dat file and am
running the build but I'm unsure how the patch magic works (which is why
I use crosstool in the first place ;-)

That's why you ran into trouble with gcc-3.3.3. You hacked the .dat file to use a snapshot, but since the patches are taken from a directory named after the gcc version, you didn't get the patches.

If you are using something like gcc-3.3.4, but that is named gcc-3.3-foo,
and you want the patches for gcc-3.3.4, then you need to do
  cd patches
  ln -s gcc-3.3.4 gcc-3.3-foo
or something like that.  Ditto for 3.4.1.

So go back to your 3.3-ish snapshot, add the missing symlink
in the crosstool/patches directory, and try again.  No need
to play with gcc-3.4 if all you wanted was to get 3.3 working.

Have a look at crosstool/getandpatch.sh if you want to see
how the patch stuff works.
