I updated my patch to remove "-include sdk.h" from all the windows cbp.
I also, submitted another patch needed to get wxSmith working again after removing "-include sdk.h"

TDragon:
GCC 4.3.2 TDM-2 (the second 4.3.2-based TDM release) is now available. Binary packages are provided as drop-in replacements for the MinGW project's official gcc packages.

I've ensured that this release can build and run wxWidgets (2.8.9) and Code::Blocks (SVN 5331; no modifications!). If you were using 4.3.2-tdm-1 with Code::Blocks and couldn't get breakpoints in headers, this should now be fixed. Please note that the TDM 4.3 releases continue to use MinGW/3.4.5's exceptions/DLLs hack for now. (Hack that it is, this method nevertheless works supremely well.)

Full details and download links are at http://www.tdragon.net/recentgcc/ .

Disclaimer:
The TDM-GCC builds are unofficial replacements for the official MinGW releases of GCC binaries. TDM-GCC was previously recommended for experimentation purposes only, but constant use in day-to-day development and a total download count of over 30,000 have proven the TDM-GCC releases to be at least as usable as the most recent official MinGW GCC release. (Please note that this does not mean that there are no bugs; merely that there is a different set of bugs with a similar or lesser average criticality.) Therefore, TDM-GCC is now heartily endorsed for production use in any non-critical environment, with only the following caveats:

* TDM-GCC is not formally affiliated with or endorsed by the MinGW project (although several MinGW team members make use of it)
* No level of support for TDM-GCC is in any way guaranteed (although a best effort is made to fix bugs as they are found or forward them to GCC Bugzilla)
Cheers,
John E. / TDM

I've got a question. In your description of bundled installer I see that you use mingw-runtime 3.14. Why you don't use latest (3.15.1) version? Is there some critical bugs or incompatibilities? Or it is just incorrect description and indeed you packaged 3.15.1?

The auto downloader gave me mingw-runtime 3.14; so, I would say it the same for bundled installer.
TDM waits a little while before upping the mingw-runtime version. When 3.16 happens he will likely have moved to 3.15.x.

TDragon:
Actually, the reason is that there are a couple of relatively critical bugs in mingwrt 3.15.1 (which have since been fixed in CVS, and 3.15.2 is expected soon). I had bumped the installer to mingwrt 3.15.1 for the 1.808.3-f2 release (and auto-download), but reverted it to 3.14 until these bugs are fixed.
