At this point, you can already get a GCC binary for any system. Heck,
you can always build a cross compiler.
So, there's less need to be as strict about this point.
But, in any case, it's simply a fact: you can't, for example, build
current GCC sources with Solaris make.
But, let's not have this debate *again* right now. We've had three
times in the last couple of years, and now is not the right time to
address the question.
