Yes, bootstrapping gcc.  This is a normal requirement for a gcc patch,
as documented at http://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html#testing .  My
concern here is merely to make sure that we aren't missing a hidden
dependency of libstdc++ on libiberty; such dependencies have certainly
been missed in the past.  For a patch like this only the libiberty
testsuite need be run.

Yes.  The current list of primary platforms may be found at
http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.5/criteria.html .

Thanks.
