But you would anyway. Once you've done the bootstrap, the new tools
are installed and leaving the binaries in the tree won't change a
thing - everything subsequent will still be linked with the new copies.
Like I said, I think there's no logical reason at all for this.
Furthermore, here's my make world time for the standard tree:
6366.76 real 4213.03 user 711.55 sys
And for a tree which has make depend and make all combined:
6189.28 real 4215.11 user 706.74 sys
A noticable difference for the same effect.
