Trying to build the world from sources supped about 10:30 yesterday,
Feb 22, I get

===> gnu/usr.bin/gcc/libgcc
cc -O -I/sources/working-usr-src/gnu/usr.bin/gcc/libgcc/../common -I/sources/working-usr-src/gnu/usr.bin/gcc/libgcc/../arch  -I/sources/working-usr-src/gnu/usr.bin/gcc/libgcc/../arch/sparc -Werror  -c -DL__gcc_bcmp -o __gcc_bcmp.o /sources/working-usr-src/gnu/usr.bin/gcc/libgcc/libgcc2.c
/sources/working-usr-src/gnu/usr.bin/gcc/libgcc/libgcc2.c:82: unknown machine mode `__word__'

This looks to me like a chicken-and-egg problem, trouble building the
new gcc with the old (this is the first build I've done since the sparc
port was switched to the new gcc).  Is it possible to get around it by
building and installing some parts and then building the rest, the way
the last error like this worked?
