The GCC sources themselves are set up for this.  All you need to do is
copy the built Makefile to an empty directory, manually add a VPATH
statement to it, copy the correct build-specific files (the ones that
update builds in configure.bat) to the directory, and make.

Note that the paths built into gcc for cross compiling assume that you
are putting stuff in /usr/local/..., unless you change that in the
Makefile.

Caveat: It's not quite as simple as it sounds, but it is pretty
straightforward.
