This is a feature, not a bug. As per the GNU Coding Standards, "make" and
"make all" should do the normal form of build for users installing the
software; it was a very longstanding bug that native users needed to do
"make bootstrap", yielding many spurious bug reports when they didn't.
Now (4.2) users can at last build GCC the same way as other GNU software.
