Well, you need that for your other builds anyway, right? Everything
needs a working gmp/mpfr/mpc. Anything that is optional does not need
to be done with this script.

No. It just needs a relatively recent set of tools on the host (gcc,
binutils, etc)

We don't need to test Ada and Go with the buildbots.

Really, the only thing interesting about the script is the broad set
of targets it uses. If you just added them to the schedule of builds,
that should be sufficient. We could even decide not to add all of
them. And certainly take out the ones that just don't build as-is.
