IMHO your current plan is broken or even wrong. Please do something like 

for i in *debuginfo*; do
  rpm2cpio $i | strings | grep -E "4.1.1-2[123456]" | sort -u;
done

to check whether your packages were built using the buggy GCC. Because
using the timeframe, there would be (many?) false-positives, e.g.

  mimedefang-2.57-4.fc6  17-Sep-2006  GNU C 4.1.1 20060828 (Red Hat 4.1.1-20)
  tcpick-0.2.1-10.fc6    10-Sep-2006  GNU C 4.1.1 20060828 (Red Hat 4.1.1-20)

My solution also saves time and ressources of the build system, because two
false-positives out of my seven packages seem to be very much - at least for
me.


Greetings,
  Robert
