I've got a section of 4" gutter on a flat roof section - 14'x8' - The fascia board behind it is the original - from the 1940s. Would it be crazy to simply remove the gutter, set it onto the flat roof, replace the boards and reinstall it?
 
Not crazy at all, just be careful not to damage the roof or bend the gutter. Make sure you have some help to support the gutter when you get it loose. Use hangers with screws and brackets instead of spike and ferules, make life a lot easier.
