It's a prerelease, but I guess officially it would still be 4.1.1:
$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: x86_64-linux-gnu
Configured with: ../src/configure -v 
--enable-languages=c,c++,fortran,objc,obj-c++,treelang --prefix=/usr 
--enable-shared --with-system-zlib --libexecdir=/usr/lib 
--without-included-gettext --enable-threads=posix --enable-nls 
--program-suffix=-4.1 --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-clocale=gnu 
--enable-libstdcxx-debug --enable-mpfr --enable-checking=release 
x86_64-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.1.2 20060928 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.1-13ubuntu5)

I've done nothing different than with any other build, except change the 
symlinks in /usr/bin to point to gcc-3.3, etc (ubuntu doesn't have any 
gcc-config style setup for easy changing of gcc versions). It could be I 
just missed something, but I didn't pass any extra options to make.
