since the plugin is to run on the host, looking at the top level makefile
HOST_EXPORTS defines CC - so, as you say, the current settings in gcc/Makefile
are honoring that.  However, it's clear that CC is ending up set to the
bootstrap compiler and not the one built for stage2/3.  I wonder if that means
that HOST_EXPORTS needs to be re-written for each stage.. 

Is there any cross-tool known to support plugins? (I get no response for
cris-elf, s390x, mipsia64 and armel-linux-gnueabi).  No error, just silently
skips all plugin tests.

Or is there a requirement that the host compiler is >= some gcc version in that
case?
