I take it you mean 2009.02. There is no such thing, there were no
releases between 0.9.27 in 2005 and 2009.02.

3.4.6 patches most likely apply to 3.4.4.

 W> For binutils i need version 2.15.94 which i may find in 0.9.27.

yes.

Have you tried the oldest versions supported by 2009.02 before you do
all this work? Chances are that they'll work.
