I'm using 4.1.2 because I couldn't get 4.2 to build for armeb with
either OABI or EABI, though that was about 8-9 months ago. I'm using
OABI with 4.1.2 successfully (I don't think EABI builds though).

What is your target hardware?

gcc-3.1 is old; you might be able to get away with 3.3 but 4.x would be
much better (and you'll have more chance of getting assistance from the
community).
