I only did that once to anticipate the upcoming need for C++ when building
gcc. Actually, everybody thought that we would have to move to a three-pass
build, and the libstdc++ trick allowed to keep only two passes. But I can tell
you that it took a lot of "blood, toil, tears and sweat" before coming up with
the current solution! Eventually, it was ready when 4.8 came out, which would
not have been possible without working with svn...
