Re: Bootstrapping GCC 5.1.0 together with Binutils 2.25

[Ondrej Jakubcik <ojakubcik@gmail.com>]

Ok, that's what I'll do then. I am fine if it is expected behaviour,
but in that case it would be best to remove the combined tree
suggestion from official documentation:
https://gcc.gnu.org/install/download.html

Would it work if I checked out the appropriate tags from SVN or is
something being modified at the time of release that prevents using
the combined tree approach?

Thanks a lot,
Ondrej
