FSF GCC does receive all fixes from GNAT Pro/GPL (in the trunk) but
the stable releases can be months behind the GPL release. Chances are
high that this particular bug is already fixed in GCC  4.5 or the
future 4.6 (i.e. trunk). If so, bisecting and backporting to GCC 4.4
should be straightforward.
