Thanks, I'll add the Changelog entry. My computer isn't very powerful, so I 
didn't bootstrap it yet, I only tested it on a stage1 compiler, on Debian 
testing/unstable. I'll find some time to bootstrap it and test it fully over 
the next few days.

Shall I also get rid of the Darwin force_at_comp_dir stuff? Looking into it a 
bit more, my patch basically obsoletes the need for this so I can delete that 
as well.
