RMS's notion of GNU is as something under his personal direction and 
control, not answerable to the grassroots at all.

For answerability to the grassroots, whatever organization the toolchain 
falls under, it's better for it to *explicitly* act only as an umbrella 
organization, serving the toolchain community rather than having any 
authority to direct it.
