Why? As explained on IRC, the only reason why Thomas DS did create the
symlinks in host-gcc-initial is to avoid duplicating this logic in all
three C library packages. But the symlinks are really only needed
before building/installing the C libraries, as far as I'm aware. So
creating them in the skeleton is OK.

Remember: in the current situation (i.e before Thomas DS patch), the
symlinks *are* created in the skeleton. And things are working fine
today, right ?
