Looks like it was removed on accident here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=blobdiff;f=gcc/doc/install.texi;h=3bf2305c8d14181bfb61d112ab3e1c0c2f605322;hp=5735f054317e08b2c5b629adfe72a308459b8bd9;hb=e8645a4001a8d117dd336ea75942aac49101af49;hpb=3825be8c96775cf8e6fcb5eef04455f07717a5ea

But it is not required to build gcc rather only if you are modifying gcc.

Thanks,
Andrew
