Of course, since GCC is licensed under the GPL, commercial companies have a
legal obligation to provide you with full copies of the source, including
"the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the
executable".

But yes, this bug report makes it apparent that the experience is far from
ideal when building compilers other than those included in the Ubuntu
archive.  We're discussing how best to address this in binutils.
