What we want to do is to run the libstdc++ testsuite with my distribution-provided g++, in order to see whether it's generally broken or not, right? And what I'm criticising here is that I have to compile *anything* of the gcc-sources in order to run the testsuite. I see no sense in building any binaries at all, since I already have all binaries (executables as well as libraries) in order to run the tests?! -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42734
