gcc (GCC) 4.4.7
 - built on this host bootstrapping up from the IBM provided
(brain-damaged) 4.2.0 to 4.2.4, then using it to build 4.3.6, and then
building 4.4.7 from that.  The libstdc++ is the one that was bootstrapped
with gcc.

Haven't had the spare time to work on the next stage [4.5.4 bootstrap]
yet, but that's a whole other Sisyphusian task.
