Hmmmmmmm.  Some of the recent important bugfixes to the library also
involved changing the gcc sources.  So when we want to work on the library,
we're generally using current CVS all the way around.

The last full bootstrap I did was with the 20001024 sources.  If you're
going to do a full build, you might start somewhere in there.  The main
flag you need to use during configuration is --enable-libstdcxx-v3 to turn
on the new library and namespace std, but not the new C++ ABI.
