I don't think there is an official approved way yet.  It should be
possible to add forwarders to toplevel Makefile.tpl and Makefile.def,
and add targets to the non-automake-governed sub directories of the
combined GCC/src tree, but you'd need to take care to pass the right
strip program (for host or for target, possibly the in-tree strip).

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Ralf
