-Once bootstrapped, this incrementally rebuilds each of the three stages,
-one at a time. It does this by ``bubbling'' the stages up from their
-subdirectories, rebuilding them, and copying them back to their
-subdirectories. This will allow you to, for example, quickly rebuild a
-bootstrapped compiler after changing the sources, without having to do a
-full bootstrap.

Rebuilds the most recently built stage. Since each stage requires

@item cleanstrap
Removed everything (@samp{make clean}) and rebuilds (@samp{make bootstrap}).
