Hi,

I finally got a chance to run some tests.  I've attached a patch below
that works.  As András pointed out,

'test-toolchain' is probably a good choice because it skips standard
library tests, which I found out can take a lot of memory (>7.5GB)!  I
also disabled stage 2 tests since stage 2 is experimental and isn't
actually installed.

Now that I have an output:

It looks like we're retaining references to the main gcc-7.5.0 output,
but only to its "include/c++" directory, as a single reference in the
zig binary.  I expect this would cause issues if another GCC version
were later used with Zig.

We're retaining double direct references to gcc-7.5.0-lib, and double
indirect references to zlib-1.2.11.  This seems to come from clang.
(Wow, clang is big. Maybe it should have a separate "lib" output?  Zig,
for example, only needs libclang to build, not the binaries.)

Other than those items, it looks good!

I've asked on their ML about exactly which dependencies are needed for
the host and target architectures, so hopefully that will solve that.
