Here's the GCC 3.4.4 for MSYS, with g++ compiled in. No 
patch included as I basically replaced all __CYGWIN__ with 
__MSYS__ and copied necessary files to gcc/config/i386 from
the original MSYS GCC 2.95.3.

GCC 3.2.3 on Phoenix' website works quite nicely as I've managed
to build a working MSYS dll with it.
