Building a cross-compiler with an existing libc binary is easy.
Building a cross-compiler without a libc is harder, and involves
a bit of two-stepping to get things right.

For someone who has never used docker, what's a recipe look like?
Just a shell script that gets run within a container?
Is there an opportunity to wget or local copy an existing libc
tarball/package to put us into the easy case?

It seems I can't even build fp-test for x86_64.
