Isn't this creating a hen-and-egg problem? How am I supposed to build a Rust
compiler for a target which is not supported by rustc (yet) when gccrs is
supposed to build-depend on cargo which requires rustc?

Quick reminder in case you haven't seen our Request for Comments on the main ML that this is only a temporary solution. Once gccrs can compile its dependencies, we'll go through a more "classical" bootstrapping chain.

rustc_codegen_gcc can probably already be used for building these dependencies however, if you'd like to have a look at that.

Kindly,

Arthur
