For the autobuilder? On that page? Not this afternoon they weren't. Just
looked. They still aren't.
Wait. Is checking out and building the cross compiler supposed to check
out the autobuilder as well (don't remember how that worked last time)?
In that case that doesn't work anymore.

There's another error on that page by the way. If you execute the very
first svn command exactly as it is given, you end up with the compiler
in <your_current_directory>/gccsdk instead of .../gcc4. Which then makes
finding things in gccsdk/gcc4 a bit difficult.

Thanks. I'll have another go tomorrow.
