I will be releasing a source tar ball of llvm-gcc4.2, but we will not be 
generating binaries or doing extensive testing. This is primarily because 
we did not know what the state of llvm-gcc4.2 would be for the release and 
did not figure it into the release plan. For LLVM 2.2, we will most likely 
be treating it equal to llvm-gcc4.0.

I do think the release notes should be reworded to indicate that 
llvm-gcc4.2 is beta only and that we did not do extensive testing.

Thanks,
Tanya
