Quite possible.

Yup. I doubt he was suggesting it be included as-is.

Let's look for a reasonably simple solution to get us through to egcs-1.2,
then plan on ripping the build procedure apart and reimplementing it from
the ground up between egcs-1.2 and egcs-1.3.
As Robert mentioned privately (and I agree) we've got hacks on top of hacks,
on top of workarounds, etc. I'm not really prepared to rip apart the build
tree yet, so another hack to hold us over a little while, then we sit down
and do it right (and likely break the tree for a while in the process).
