  Problem with this instructions starts from very beginning:

binutils git://sourceware.org/git/binutils-gdb.git master
gcc git://gcc.gnu.org/git/gcc.git gcc-4_9-branch
newlib git://sourceware.org/git/newlib.git master

 Not-released software could not be packaged! We could only refer to stable,
non-changeable, tarballs on vendor's server, not to some "git revision" or
some "${packaghename}.tar.bz2", which could be changed (re-rolled) under same
name :(

 It is not exactly "how to convert them into packaging for a particular distribution
isn't something that's likely to come from this list.", it is discussion
about status of toolchain which, as I could say now, is not ready for
distro-packaging due to absence of any suitable "releases", may be,
snapshot-quality, but "stable" in sense of content.

 Yep, but on other hand it is "stable", well-named file :)

 Anyway, thank you for all you work on mspgcc!
