In reply to comment #1, as far as I've understood it after two days of  
seeing Jan hacking it and getting me into it as well, GUB does not "pretend  
to be a complete, sandboxed build environment", it's not a cross build  
environment from scratch, which may require as much work as what has been  
put into into it so far; it's a build environment that bootstraps  
cross-compilers and dependencies in a way that partially relies on the host  
system for some packages, in a way that the greatest number of common  
GNU/Linux systems will get the job done.  In that respect, GUB needs  
ongoing maintenance to keep working well.  That's why I'm restoring the  
issue title.
