errr no... Michael Hitch reported the same, and as far as he analyzed, the
PATH for building was changed to exclude it.
Which is very reasonable for a building machine.
In this special case, gspa would be machine independent, but not OS
independent; we can't rely on it being available, so it would have to be
a host tool. It's certainly more reasonable to carry around the created
microcode.
