Another possibility would be creating a combined tree and
building everything in a single step.  This page explains how
to do it:

 http://gcc.gnu.org/simtest-howto.html

I find it very useful when you need to build a full blown toolchain
(everything from binutils to gdb).

Suggestion: wouldn't it be nice to extract the combined tree docs
from simtest-howto.html and move them to a specific page?  I guess
most people would ignore that useful piece of documentation thinking
that it's only useful for running the testsuite.
