If there are no objections, I'll create a patch.

Pffff... for those of us who just install the latest-and-greatest fedora/suse/ubuntu/... once and don't change installations for two or three years (stable machine, etc.) it becomes increasingly harder to install all required libraries to build GCC...

But why do you want to work this way (assuming that people who need a stable OS don't want to upgrade their compiler on a whim).


We're in the process of developing the next GCC. Therefore, my modus operandi is to "apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade" my Debian testing OS every Sunday morning.
