The first step would be to adapt the GCC package selection code to work 
with the integrated tarball, as a (preferred?) alternative to the 
segregated packages expected at present.  Perhaps we should construct 
two package lists, with one including only the integrated tarball, the 
second the full list of segregated packages required to satisfy the 
user's language selection.  Then, when preparing the build, look for 
the integrated tarball first, and fall back to the segregated package 
list if that isn't available.

Don't struggle on your own.  Feel free to discuss any problems, on 
either the MinGW-dvlpr list, or maybe even better, the MinGW-users 
list.  It is likely that we may need some advice from either Aaron or 
Danny, and I'm sure there will be other members of the community who 
will be interested, and may have constructive advice to offer.

Regards,
Keith.
