Ideally, if one wanted to build GDB and not GCC (for instance), it
would be as easy as saying 'make all-gdb'. Since the Makefile now
runs configure, the GCC configury shouldn't be run.
I do think that 'make ; ^c ; make' should work. The ^c might be
something like 'disk full' or 'oops, foo/configure fails with exit 1'
or 'oops, cc1 has the wrong permissions'.
