Since this comment relates to libstdc++ v2 and GCC 3.0 and later do not
use this, removing all the obsolete code (and maybe everything relating to
building a target libiberty) would be the obvious fix for any problems
with it.
(As far as I can tell, the only use of any libiberty code for the target
is libstdc++-v3 using a demangler source file; libiberty built for the
target doesn't seem to be used at all.)
