Quick reminder in case you haven't seen our Request for Comments on the 
main ML that this is only a temporary solution. Once gccrs can compile 
its dependencies, we'll go through a more "classical" bootstrapping chain.

rustc_codegen_gcc can probably already be used for building these 
dependencies however, if you'd like to have a look at that.

Kindly,

Arthur
