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.
