As it was due to the colon-in-objdir issue, it really wasn't that huge;
however, in general I have been noticing that libstdc++ has been receiving
relatively invasive changes relatively late in the release processes.

Target triples we have full control over, so this isn't a problem. I am
mostly testing colon-in-objdir as I this had worked without problems for
years, and I simply want to avoid regressions showing up only after formal
releases. (Else I would have eliminated the weird colon ages ago. ;) )
