Yes, this is how CVS GCC works.  2.95.2 does not work as advertised.
I've done some work on dependencies recently, and fixed these issues.

You could either download the most recent snapshot, or even better
check out CVS.

We could really do with 2 sets of online docs - on for the CVS
version, and one for the most recent release :-(
