I don't remember that, but the toplevel has improved in functionality in
order to support toplevel bootstrap. It should be much much easier to

ps: if any "uberbaum heavyweight" is reading this, and can approve
toplevel patches, let me remember the toplevel has an important bug
fixed by http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2005-11/msg00380.html
