Excellent Darrell,

  If you update or improve patches, please post updates to 958. Unless you have
somewhere else you would rather collect them all, I say we just work all gcc47
patches in bug 958 since that is where the collection of patches currently
resides. I have made a point to upload all of the gcc47 patches I have there.

  Also, after you gcc47 builds of tdelibs and tdebase, test the kwrite/kate
lockup issue that is presently 979. That will help rule in or rule out gcc47 as
an issue.
