MRS and Eric Botcazou objected strongly against not being able to

I tend to like long term stability in who things are done, but I'm
not stuck in the mud, the point of my email was to reassure someone
that in fact a 1-stage build will never go away, exactly how one
achieves that I don't care as much about, only that it be possible.
I have two trees (actually 83 trees to be precise, but whose
counting), one that only bootstraps and one that never bootstraps, so
I am fine with it being a configure option.
