Do we need to have the GCC test suites into the repository ? Cannot we
have a script that downloads, untars, and adds into the package tree
automatically. It is very long to checkout and we do not need to
modify it.

I am against downloading it because it would make us depend on the
Epita's Internet access, which is not a good idea.
A better idea would be to keep the tests in a .tar.bz2 in the
repository, and extract them in bootstrap.sh, thus reducing the checkout
time. Since the tests are never modified, we don't need the incremental
differences for them.
Also, it would allow us to keep only the subset of the GCC test-suite
that we use (we don't need all the tests).

Ain't this cost paid *once*, and only once? Just at the initial checkout.
