[Bug build/15823] Host rpcgen is sort of fundamentally broken for cross-compilers

I.e., that there should only be bin/$target-gcc and so forth?

The fun thing there, of course, is that if you remove things like
$target/bin/as, then GCC doesn't know where to find an assembler unless you
explicitly point it at bin/$target-as.  Which is arguably just more of the same
bug.

Anyway, an interesting suggestion, if you want to post it into the GCC bug
report, and I'd be awfully tempted to implement it.

I mildly disagree with Carlos; it is not _entirely_ orthogonal so much as
reinforcing the point that the right fix is the proposed enhancement, rather
than "just go fix the GCC bug".  But I mildly disagree with him only in the
spirit of agreeing with him that it's off-topic.  :)
