Typically I don't put the patches I use for Release Candidates into CVS. There 
always seems to be last minutes fixes and additions after the Release Candidate 
(hence that's why it's a Release Candidate). However, they are always included 
in the Release Candidate installer.

I am working on the actual WinAVR release as I write this email (20090313), and 
I hope to have it up on SourceForge either later tonight or sometime tomorrow 
(more likely). Soon after that, I will place the patches into the WinAVR CVS, 
but probably it is more likely that I'll wait until Monday (I would like to 
have a life sometime over the weekend ;-).

No, this release will not use GCC 4.3.3, it will stay at 4.3.2. Specifically:

Binutils 2.19
GCC 4.3.2
Avr-libc 1.6.6
Avrdude 5.6
Insight/GDB 6.8
Avarice 2.9
Simulavr 0.1.2.6
Srecord 1.38
Programmers Notepad 2.0.8.718
Libusb 0.1.12.1

HTH,
Eric
