You can ask about this in Debian lists. I don't have unstable so I can't
test for myself, but the current unstable kernel surely builds for them.

As for Asterisk 1.2: It should hit experimental any day now. There are
also unofficial debs at http://rapid.dotsrc.org/experimental/ . If those
don't build with gcc 4 then this should be reported. Most gcc 4
incompatibility bugs I saw were fixed pretty fast.

Asterisk 1.0.9 and bristuff RC8l (the current package in unstable)
probably builds with gcc4. I'm not sure if it has the florz patch in it.
