We have some github repos that use git submodule to include other repos,
including gcc.  When git submodule is used, .git is actually a file not a dir,
and contains the path to the modules file in the parent repo's .git dir.  This
patch allows contrib/gcc_update to work in this situation.

OK?

Jim

	* gcc_update: Check for .git as a file.
