I hadn't noticed that the only use of HAVE_GCC was in
tools/gcc/Makefile itself, presumably to make sure that the tools GCC
gets built the same way as the target GCC and with all the right
options to make sure it gets built at all.

I was just using the ".if" to be a bit defensive about passing -std to
an unknown compiler, even though we do pass -std in a couple of places
already.
