GCC-4.7.2-2: Go/No-go?

    Hi all,

  I have a release of 4.7.2-2 ready to upload.  It fixes the dependencies back
to the 4.5.3-3 curr: version dependencies, makes TLS vars exported from DLLs
work and restores java and libffi.  I've also been running the testsuite over
the last few days and the results look quite reasonable.

  Yaakov thinks (http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2013-04/msg00032.html) that
I shouldn't release it until I've integrated all his patches.

  I think (http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2013-04/msg00057.html) that it's
worth uploading as a stop-gap to address the mentioned problems and
integrating Yaakov's patches for the next release.

  Could the list please help us make a decision?

    cheers,
      DaveK
