We @strong{highly} recommend that GCC be built using GNU make;
other versions may work, then again they might not.
GNU make is required for compiling GNAT (the Ada compiler) and the Java

recommended setup where @var{objdir} is different from @var{srcdir}.
Other broken versions may recompile parts of the compiler when
installing the compiler.)
