Robert P. J. DAY says:

apparently, the patchset for gcc 4.2.1 applies properly to the
source for gcc 4.2.2 and gcc 4.2.3. so, if you want, you can simply
add support for those last two just by augmenting menuconfig and
adding a couple symlinks for those two directories. seems like a
cheap way to add a couple new versions.

     6 STABS hash table size change, backported from the binutils CVS tree.  Here's
     7 the CVS log comment for the original change:
     8 
     9 revision 1.25
    10 date: 2005/12/29 10:29:23;  author: nickc;  state: Exp;  lines: +2 -3
    11 (_bfd_link_section_stabs): Use bfd_hash_table_init rather than
    12 bfd_hash_table_init_n(...,251) so that the size of the hash table can be
    13 controlled by the user.
    14 
    15 Note that tunable hash table size changes were added after 2.15.  The effect
    16 of this change is to make bfd use its default hash table size for the stabs
    17 hash as well.
