I would also note that using "make" in the cp/ directory at least used to build
cc1plus with the system compiler, without -Werror and with a different set of
warnings. There have been many cases where a patch tested by C++ rules (which
is *not* a full bootstrap, but just "build compiler, build libjava, check c++")
resulted in a bootstrap failure because of a variable not initialized or
something. The correct solution used to be (guess what!) "make bubblestrap" to
build the compiler. Now, it's simply the default :)
