--- Comment #44 from Matthias Andree <mandree@FreeBSD.org> ---
I ask again:=20

1. why do we bootstrap by default?=20
2. why do we use LTO on disposable parts of the build?

- LTO is pointless in all non-installed stages of the bootstrap
- only the final stage gets installed and used at scale

Are our base system compilers still insufficient to build GCC in a single
"stage 3" build? If all supported Tier-1 and possibly Tier-2 base compilers=
 can
build GCC, let's get rid of the three-stage bootstrap and build The Real Th=
ing
That Gets Installed right away.
