Ugh, what a pain :-(

What if the gcc/Makefile replaces HOST_CC with GCC_FOR_TARGET in that
section?  Wouldn't that guarantee gcc being called?

Hmm..., after reading the comment in the makefile, I'm wondering two
things.  First, why is it trying to build f/intdoc.texi in the first
place?  Isn't it in the distribution?  What if the ansi flag for the
native C compiler is used?

Well the answer to the second is that HP's C compiler chokes on this
build even with the -Aa flag.

By the way, did the patch to the printf make sense?  Or was I fixing
something that wasn't broken?
