cc/gcc: cleanup the _or_later logic

So far, we've had a version always select appropriate _or_later option,
which in turn would select all previous _or_later options.

Because the dependencies on companion libs were cumulative, that was
working OK. But the upcoming 4.6 will no longer depend on libelf, so
we can't keep the cumulative scheme we've been using so far.

Have each release family select the corresponding dependencies, instead
of relying on selecting previous _or_later.

     4 The following makes it possible to configure glibc-2.3.2 on Mac OS X,
     5 where the assembler but doesn't understand the --version flag.
     6 
     7 Fixes the symptom
     8 checking whether ld is GNU ld... no
     9 checking for /usr/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as... /usr/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as
    10 checking version of /usr/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as...
    11 <PAUSES HERE AND JUST SITS THERE DOING NOTHING>

    13 NOTE:  This patch should apparently be pushed upstream so we don't need to
    14 keep adding it here.
