This reminds me...I think there's a bug in the libstdc++
configure script in both branch and mainline.

It tests the host's GCC version instead of the cross-compiler's
GCC version.

If you try to create a cross-compiler on a stock Red Hat 7.1
Linux system, it says:

../gcc/configure --target=sh-elf
...
checking for g++ that will successfully compile libstdc++-v3... configure: error: please upgrade to gcc-2.95 or above
make: *** [configure-target-libstdc++-v3] Error 1

libstdc++-v3 iirc is compiled with the cross-compiler, not the
host's CC, so it shouldn't be emitting this message, I think.
