There is no howto really.  Someone needs to build proper working 
binutils 2.20 and gcc 4.4.2 rpms that you can install to replace your 
currently installed gcc.  Then it is a matter of cd'ing into the 
freemint folder and typing 'make'.  Until then you need to download the 
builds from mikro's site (use google to find it), tar jxvf -C / 
binutils-2.20.tar.bz2 and tar jxvf -C / gcc-4.4.2.tar.bz2 (the names may 
be different).   Then you need to make those overcome your current 
gcc/binutils by doing export PATH=/usr/local/bin/:$PATH.  Then you can 
verify if you type gcc --version and you get 4.4.2 you should be good to 
go to the freemint folder and type make and you will be building with 
gcc 4.4.2.  If you have any other gcc or binutils builds installed under 
/usr/local they will be trashed by this command I believe.

Thanks,
