What is gcc 4.1.3?

According to the gcc releases page, http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/releases.html, version 4.1.3 does not exist.

However, I've seen the version mentioned in various places. (Just do a Google search, for instance.) I also distinctly remember that 4.1.3 is the version I had in an old Ubuntu distro, and 4.1.3 is the version running in a chroot jail I still have.

So what is 4.1.3? More importantly, how does it differ from 4.1.2, and how can I get the source code for 4.1.3 so I can rebuild it on my system?

According to some logs, this version of GCC was a prerelease.

gcc (GCC) 4.1.3 20070929 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu2)

The source code for this version can be found on github [1]. Actually, GCC 4.1.3 has never been released. Finally, it is amusing to note that GCC 4.1.2-RH is based on 137441 of FSF branches/gcc-4_1-branch (the branch that contains the GCC 4.1.3 prerelease commit).
