It's cleanup for dropping the dependency. As far as I know, libgcc_eh.a
and libgcc_s.so are always built together - either both are built, or
neither is built - and there was already a dependency on libgcc_eh. The
aim of the patch series is to eliminate the dependency on both those
libraries, so that a minimal static-only libgcc can be used to build
glibc.
