Description Ville Skyttä 2013-07-02 21:15:39 UTC

Compressing the gcc tarball with xz would save about 12 MB, see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.devel/181336 and let me know if you'd like me to take care of this for devel.

BTW the recipe for recreating the tarball is broken, the fix below fixes it too:
