Thanks for your encouraging answer. I tried the
configure option --disable-bootstrap and it worked
well enough for me.
That is just a time and storage space 'optimization'. You are using the
new compiler to build the libraries not the system 'bootstrap' compiler.
The only thing you are skipping is having the new compiler build
itself to verify that it is working properly.
It I were you, I would just bootstrap the new compiler and use that for
everything. That way you would know that you have a consistent set of
toolchain components (compiler/libraries).
