The standard approach would be to build a minimal gcc first, use this
gcc to build a libc, then rebuild a "full gcc".

For newlib-based targets (such as rtems), a special exception exists:
For them, newlib/libc can be built simultaneously with GCC.

Exactly. It also has another advantage: Nothing can be "more original"
than the "original" - I.e. why rebuilding target libs when you can use
the original files?
