Maybe I'll help on that later, but I think the priority right now
should be to get a supported installer that installs a recent version
of gcc. (as such, if I do, it probably won't be before it can install
gcc 4)

My intention was to steer the conversation away from "you should use
GUIs" vs "you should use GUIs" as it really doesn't matter - if you
are losing users over not having a proper installer (and yes, I think
that includes having a GUI to some extent, but includes having an
installer that installs gcc 4 to a much larger extent) you should
either state that you don't care or you should provide a proper
installer.
