+<p>
+The GCC release schedule does not coincide with the Go release schedule, so some skew is inevitable in
+<code>gccgo</code>'s releases.
+The 4.8.0 version of GCC shipped in March, 2013 and includes a nearly-Go 1.1 version of <code>gccgo</code>.
+Its library is a little behind the release, but the biggest difference is that method values are not implemented.
+Sometime around May 2013, we expect 4.8.1 of GCC to ship with a <code>gccgo</code>
+providing a complete Go 1.1 implementaiton.
