Yep, but here I need binutils to build gcc and I need to build gcc three
(!) times. Cross-build toolchains are ugly, you now...

Ok, I could add one more directory (port-specifc stage dir, really) and
make install to be "${TAR} -cf - -C ${MYSTAGE} . | ${TAR} -cf - -C
${STATGEDIR}" :) It eill take even more space (now ${WRKSRC} is 5.1G after
everything is done), but Ok.
