Patient:  Doctor, when I move my hand this way, it hurts!
Doctor:   Then don't do that.

Seriously, you just don't need to compile gcc with xgcc in this case, 
because you did that originally.  The extra stage is for the cases where 
the first xgcc is built with non-GNU compiler.

Since that is the case, nobody bothered to have "make stage1" work on 
MS-DOS.

If you feel you would like to have gcc compiled with itself, just rename 
xgcc.exe to gcc.exe, delete the *.o and other intermediate files, then 
repeat the first two steps (run config.bat, then make) again.
