So, it sounds like we need to add headers/ARCH/os/ and friends to the compilers. I can do this, but not 100% sure on the process to bootstrap a new gcc.
Since this change doesn't break any kind of binary compatibility, you can just build the new compilers via haikuporter. I don't know about the state of the recipes for gcc's dependencies, so I'd play it safe and build with a clean packages directory and --no-dependencies. All dependencies need to be installed in the system first.
Oh, and don't forget -j8 or whatever is appropriate on your hardware, or building gcc 4 will take a small eternity.
