 Hmm, interesting, I wasn't aware you could actually build stage 1 GCC 
without target headers nowadays.

 When I tried it previously, it failed, and I had to come up with a hack 
to make glibc's `make install-headers' work, as ordinarily it requires a 
target compiler, making it a chicken-and-egg problem.

 Great work, thanks!
