 # IMPORTANT NOTE:
-# This script now accepts an optional argument.
-# Without an argument, it executes normally.
-# With a "1.5" argument, it will execute only the first half of the build process.
-# With a "2" argument, it will execute only the second half of the build process.
-# Please ensure that this is maintained properly, as it is needed for my stage-building tools

+# This script no longer accepts an optional argument.
+# It was removed by the same person who added it -- me, drobbins -- when I optimized
+# bootstrap to complete 20 mins to 2 hours faster, depending on CPU. I did this by 
+# merging both stages of bootstrap into a single stage. We no longer compile gcc and
+# binutils twice. Doing this is unnecessary and a holdover from very early versions
+# of Gentoo, where we were being ultra-paranoid.
