I am currently rewriting the "install" directions, BUT...
As a "background task" pre-thinking those gcc-Makefiles...
I have gotten as far in the outline of their structure (to be) that I can
agree with Gabriel - the first (stage0?) compiler should be buildable from
and collection of multiple compilers (as far as the Makefiles are concerned
that is).
First, though, I need to get the "install directions" caught up with the
current situation before I out-date them with a different set of Makefiles.
