I wasn't able to ssh directly into gcc.gnu.org, it seemed to accept my
connection but then it hung for a while and punted me out.  So I sent
email to overseers.

Yeah sure, I'd like to do that assuming I can get in. In the mean time, I
had no problems getting the three files I needed directly from the
canonical websites just now using `wget'.

ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gmp/gmp-4.2.1.tar.bz2

http://www.mpfr.org/mpfr-current/mpfr-2.2.0.tar.bz2
http://www.mpfr.org/mpfr-current/patches

You'll need to name the patches file something meaningful.

I'd be happy to upload these once I get access (unless someone beats me to
it).
