    I couldn't make it happen, but I can't say I've tried too hard.  All I
    have to say is that it is not as easy as simply removing the back-end
    and the C front-end directory from the source tree,

I would have tried something simpler--just running Make with arguments
that tell it not to build cc1.  If that doesn't work, can you try to
find out why not?  It might be an easily corrected problem.
