No, that's not how it's done, and not what I'd like to see as a
requirement, particularly not as an argument out of a documented
requirement.  Better to fix things that breaks while they're
still fixable.  Please bear with us cross-compiler users, who
actually *do* cross-compile. ;-)

I'll try and build gfortran cross using gcc-2.95 and see what
breaks, then send patches.  Ok?
