We have everything installed with the default for whatever distor (or similar
for non-Linux) is used.  There are newer tools etc. in /opt/cfarm/ sometimes.

On https://gcc.gnu.org/install/ there are installation instructions, for
configuring and buiding GCC, generic as well as per-configuration stuff.  There
is nothing specific about the cfarm here.  There is some info about Solaris, in
the GCC documentation.

A lovely utopian worldview, if you subscribe to the "everything should always
be the same" worldview, anyway.
