I've noticed that you've fix that up (looks good), but I also noticed one
additional small item: into "build: Add libgrust as compilation modules",
you'll have to add the effect of top-level 'autogen Makefile.def' (that
is, regenerate the top-level 'Makefile.in').

That's now been done, thanks.

Rebasing onto current master branch, there's a minor (textual) conflict
in top-level 'configure.ac:host_libs': 'intl' replaced by 'gettext', and
top-level 'configure' plus 'gcc/configure' have to be re-generated (the
latter for some unrelated changes in line numbers).  Otherwise, those
initial libgrust changes are now in the form that I thought they should

That's correct.  My theory is that "fixup: Fix bootstrap build" can be
dropped altogether (that is, reverted on GCC/Rust master branch; I'll
look into that, later), and "fixup: Fix missing build dependency" will be
necessary once the GCC/Rust front end links against libgrust (that is,
will then move into that commit).

So I guess I really just was lucky in my testing, because: later I
actually again did run into the need for that commit, so:

Hi Thomas!

A newer version of the library has been force-pushed to the branch 
`libgrust-v2/to-submit`.

Do you mean that the regeneration should happen before the commit adding 
the proc_macro library? Or that when we keep going and adding more

And alright, we'll move the changes to contrib/gcc_update into the

That's still unchanged in the GCC/Rust libgrust-v2/to-submit branch;
