Release notes 

Linaro GCC 4.5 is the fifth release in the 4.5 series. Based off the latest GCC 4.5.1+svn167157, it includes many ARM-focused performance improvements and bug fixes.

Interesting changes include:
 * A new performance focused extension elimination pass
 * Speed and size improvements when loading constants
 * Performance improvements on compound conditionals
 * A range of correctness improvements

This release explicitly turns off the stack protector when building libgcc, making it easier to enable the stack protector by default for other code.
