That is a local patch only used on my network; I didn't realize it was
being installed. Argh. I'll need to find another method for doing this.
Something better than #ifdef TODDPW_NET_ONLY , I hope.

You'll see it on alpha/arm32/i386/macppc/next68k/sparc/sun3/vax because
those were built on my network and I have that patch in the master tree
that is sync'd onto all my build machines.

That causes /cc1hack/cc1 to become the C compiler; it's a stub that forwards
the C source over to a faster machine which has a cross compiler on it.

It's how I got all my slow boxes to build a lot faster.
