Typing make in the build directory will re-make the necessary parts. Note that because you bootstrapped stage2 and stage3 will be completely re-built. For developing configure with --disable-bootstrap and type make all-gcc to re-build things in gcc/, or in gcc/ for example use make cc1 to just rebuild cc1.
