Yes.  Highly recommended, particularly for hpux10.20.

That section of the install guide is a little ambigious.  It should
be clearer that gas will be built *if* you've added it to the egcs
source tree.

You can install it now and use the gcc option "-mgas" to avoid the
warnings.

If you want to make "-mgas" the default, then reconfigure gcc with
the "--with-gnu-as" option and rebuilt.
