Check in a pristine copy of GCC 4.8.1.
The copy of GCC that we use for Android is still not working for mingw. Rather than finding all the differences that have crept into our GCC, just check in a copy from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc/gcc-4.9.3/gcc-4.8.1.tar.bz2. GCC 4.8.1 was chosen because it is what we have been using for mingw thus far, and the emulator doesn't yet work when upgrading to 4.9. Bug: http://b/26523949 Change-Id: Iedc0f05243d4332cc27ccd46b8a4b203c88dcaa3

+This directory contains scripts that are used by the regression
+tester, <http://gcc.gnu.org/regtest/>
+
+The primary script is 'btest-gcc.sh'. This is the script that is run
+to actually test the compiler.
+
+'objs-gcc.sh' takes a combined tree and builds (but does not test) the
+tools required for 'btest-gcc.sh'. It is run periodically to update
+the tools. This script is followed by running 'btest-gcc.sh' using
+the newly-build tools to check that they will not cause regressions.
+
+'site.exp' is what $DEJAGNU points to when the regression tester runs
+these scripts.
+
+'GCC_Regression_Tester.wdgt' is a Dashboard widget that displays the
+current state of the tester using Javascript. You can use it without
+needing Dashboard by pointing your web browser at
+'GCC_Regression_Tester.wdgt/widget.html', if your browser supports
+and permits it.
+
+Note that any changes made here need to be approved by the regression
+tester's maintainer (see MAINTAINERS). The changes will be used on
+the tester's next run, so `experimental' changes are very strongly
+discouraged :-).
