Indeed, my original assertion was wrong. The difference between libgfortran
and f951 is that libgfortran is code for the target, and f951 is code for the
host. The former needs to be compiled by a compiler for the target (=xgcc),
the latter by a compiler for the host (=system compiler in a non-bootstrapped
build). Of course in a native compiler this distinction makes no sense, but
I'm not volunteering to change the build machinery.

So indeed, we need to fix those appearances of code which doesn't compile with
 GCC 2.95 (the documented minimum for building a cross-compiler).

Thanks to the people who explained this to me off-list.
