I tried to do collect stuff for update for djgpp/current at:

http://ap1.pp.fi/djgpp/next/

1) rebuilt several GCC versions (gcc-4.9.3 and gcc-5.2.0 are about to 
released in next
weeks so I add builds of them when these versions will be released. I do 
not think that
there is need to rebuild gcc-4.9.2 and gcc-5.1.0). Also built gcc-3.4.6 
(last 3.4.X) as 3.4.X
is still used.

2) built last versions of GMP, MPFR, MPC (uploaded also for djgpp/beta 
and announced
builds of MPFR-3.1.3 and MPC-1.0.3)

3) rebuilt bash-2.05b (only change is configure regenerated using 
autoconf-2.68 on Linux)

4) Included also last builds from Juan

Missing packages should be taken from djgpp/beta

It would be nice if we could get DJGPP v2.05 working well enough on 
FreeDOS with LFN enabled.
Unfortunately FreeDOS 1.1 has nasty /dev/null bug which prevents 
configure scripts from working
and 1.2 not yet available AFAIK. In worse case we should postpone that 
to DJGPP v2.06

Anyway it would be nice to rebuild packages which contains executables 
and have not built recently
enough

Question: what to do with packages not maintained for many years (like 
RHIDE) and which do not have
any recent builds?

Also: we should perhaps soon stop changing v2_05_1 branch soon to be 
able to make real release.

I could collect files and upload updated djgpp/current after I'll return 
to Finland in July. gcc-4.9.3 and
gcc-5.2.0 should also be ready then. I can add new builds from 
djgpp/beta to
http://ap1.pp.fi/djgpp/next/ when these builds appear.
