 hmm - that was my guess, except that cygwin bootstraped fine - however i 
 subsequently realised cygwin gcc must not be weak symbol friendly, so its a 
 non-issue there.
 
 (would of tried it on the alpha, but bootstraping on this alpha isnt 
 something i want to do every day - mainly because it takes all day...)
