Back in the day, Sun stopped shipping any compiler at all with their
OS. gcc users had to bootstrap by getting a precompiled gcc, and then
using that to build a newer gcc.
So, I don't think this is a big problem. With volunteer help, we
could even put precompiled HP executables of some fixed version of gcc
on the ftp site.
