Sure you can say that, but it is not quite the same.  ;-)
Your problem can be fixed by running the script:

   cd ${top_srcdir} ; sh contrib/gcc_update --touch

But you have pointed out a failing in the script.
I should catch the argument in my case statement with:

  fixincl.x | */fixincl.x ) .... ;;

Thanks!
