If it was possible to separate-out libgcc somewhat so that it could be
built outside the whole compiler build, that would be marvelous, but
my (vague) understanding of the way things are done was that this was
not really practical. Is it?

And whilst on the subject - do the other libs like gomp mudflap and
erm <any others> that come of of toolchain builds need to be built in
the same set of flavours or is this issue restricted to libgcc?
