I observed previously that for other reasons the old version is also
required for the release manager to use when building release tarballs
<http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2003-06/msg01048.html>.  This requirement
remains unless the problem with the portability of the generated code has
been fixed, as GCC is unlikely to presume a C99 library on the host for
another decade.
