In an already-built objdir, touch or modify any of your target-specific t-* files, then in gcc "make libgcc.mvars". Observe that libgcc.mvars is unmodified. To fix, just add $(tmake_file) to the dependencies for libgcc.mvars. Almost as simple as writing a bugzilla entry, but only almost... and I'd have to check other similar variables should also be dependencies.
