I haven't looked closely at this, but I will note right off that this:
dt> "CC=$$(echo $$(case '$(CC)' in (stage*) echo '$(CC)' | sed -e
is very non-portable. /bin/sh on Solaris (2.5.1 and 2.6 at least)
can't handle either of these constructs (either $() or () in case match
items), for example. Since make always uses /bin/sh, installing this
construct will make gcc unbuildable on Solaris (at least).
