These require some updates for the toolchain. binutils takes some selected patches to fix specific issues, and gcc-4.8 takes the state of the current gcc-4.8 fsf branch to update the compiler. Changes and addresses issues are mentioned in the debian changelog. Packages are prepared in the ubuntu-toolchain-r/ppa PPA, and a test rebuild of the archive was done on all architectures using this PPA. The results of this test rebuild look ok (for all of the -release, -updates and -security pockets). As a further test, the linux (see bug #1383474), firefox and libreoffice packages were rebuilt, tested and found working.
