    Yes, but 'make bootstrap-lean' SHOULD do a 'make compare-lean' and,
    therefore, remove the second stage after a sucessful compare, which it
    doesn't.  Looking through the compare target in the gcc/Makefile, everything
    looks fine, but I don't really know makefile syntax so that doesn't mean
    much.
    
None of the possible 'make bootstrap*' rules invoke _any_ compare*
targets; hence, you have to call them yourself and it depends on which
compare (compare, compare-lean, gnucompare, gnucompare-lean) you call
if the stage`n' subdir will be removed.
