I will be building later versions as well (and making a transition to 4.8.X as soon as I can)... but as a first step I have to work with 4.4.0 unfortunately. I got the requirements from http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html. Perhaps it is not true for versions as old as 4.4.0? Dropping cloog might be the pragmatic solution for now as we can live without any of the graphite loop optimisation stuff. I can bring it in when I move on to later versions. D
