Hmm, what's the intention? For, if someone has to verify a patch to
the backend, she has to bootstrap the entire compiler suite anyway,

right?)
Furthermore, isn't LANGUAGES deprecated in favor of --enable-languages
now?

Yes, certainly!
Could someone contribute a bit of documentation on the mangling?
And/or any relevant information on the environment settings that is
missing from the current page?
