I'm creating a gcc-4.5 recipe locally, modeling it after the current gcc-4.7 recipe folder. I've taken the patches from the gcc-4.5.1 recipe folder from a previous yocto release, and was wondering for the recent gcc-4.5.4 release, which of these patches can I drop?

SRC_URI_append_sh3  = " file://sh3-installfix-fixheaders.patch "

I notice that around 60 to 70% of the above patches are still applied to the gcc-4.7 recipe, so I was wondering how one maintains this recipe.

Best regards,
