It's based on CVS libc AFAIK. So it's already not a stable version anyway. Also 
my script for building binary packages points to prerelase status in names
of archives (eg. gcc31b-prerelease.zip). Perhaps it should not be the only 
version of GCC available from there.

One more note: building gcc-3.1 with DJGPP-v2.03 requires (!!!) update of 
va_list definition in include/sys/djtypes.h (my binaries are built with
updated v2.03)
