Wow, that's awkward.

Remind me why it's a good idea to force me to mess with bootstrapping at
all, when all I want is to build a copy of the compiler that I can use
for debugging problems? There has to be an easier way to do that. My
laptop builds stage1 reasonably fast, but a bootstrap takes several hours.
This is a serious regression for me.
