An excellent question!
I'd say write it for the web pages. I think that ought to be the
eventual home for all installation stuff. Easier to keep up to date,
particularly between releases.
We should probably convert the entire installation section from the
gcc manual into html and put it in the htdocs directory. And (of course)
remove the info from the gcc manual itself.
