When a native build of GCC is installed, gcc and g++ get links
$target-gcc, $target-g++ and $target-c++; but g77 and gcj don't get links
$target-g77 and $target-gcj.  Why?

Also, binutils installs (again for a native build) links to several
programs in $tooldir/bin (i.e., $prefix/$target/bin), but GCC doesn't.
What's the reason for this difference between GCC and binutils?
