You know more than me, but are you sure it's not just a case that you 
are looking at a bad example?  I see no reason why you wouldn't just 
produce a new template which simply installs only the things you need?  
eg in your case you could simply create an incredibly "fat" stage1 which 
is all the software you need and no gcc, just stop there..?

I was under the impression the stage1-4 is all arbitrary and just the 
result of you using 4 template files, nothing else? (use only one stage 
or use 7 stages?)

Good luck
