hmm, this is fine [most of the time] for building gcc because this
only affects the first stage build.   but that's the point of my other
post-- we'd all probably be delighted to use this, if it could handle
parallelizing the other stages.

in which case, you're going to have to design a mechanism to use the
recently built compiler to rebuild itself, target libraries, and 
other languages (c++, java, etc).  (see my previous email)
