people to build gcc.


Can't we just make it so that, if gmp/  amd mpfr/ directories exist in
the toplevel, they are built along with GCC?  I don't mean actually
including gmp and mpfr in the gcc SVN repo, but just making it
possible to build them when someone unpacks gmp/mpfr tarballs in the
toplevel dir.

I wouldn't object to that. It's a bit more build-system complexity, but if it makes it easier for people, then it's worth it.
