for base-gcc archs we really want to keep the number of ports in the
build path to gcc low.

bzip2 currently only depends on dwz (on debug pkgs archs) or nothing,
so I think that's currently ok, but care will be needed to avoid loops
building gcc if things change in the future.

so, really i would advise switching binutils to the tar.gz rather than
gas to the tar.bz2.
