cc/gcc: speed up the build a little bit

Even if the current process is highly parallel, crosstool-NG spends most
of its time in single-job steps on fast machines (with a 12-CPU system,
I approximate the parallel vs. non-parallel time to be in the order os
1 to 3; that is crostool-NG spends two-thirds of its time running
non-parallel jobs).

Some steps to build gcc can be paralleled, gaining a litle bit of time
on the whole compilation.

    12       Crosstool-NG relies on some external tools to be recent enough, namely:
    13         make = 3.81 (in some cases)
    14         m4 >= 1.4.12
    15         autoconf >= 2.63
    16         automake >= 1.10.2
    17         libtool >= 2.2.4
    18       
    19       If your system has older versions, we can build them for you,
    20       but you are strongly encouraged to update your system instead!
