I would like to bring Simon's patch for the
--with-native-system-header-dir configure option from the
google/integration branch into gcc mainline. This patch permits
changing the system header directory from /usr/include to something
else. It's mainly useful in conjunction with sysroot, so that the
header files don't have to live in usr/include under the sysroot.
Simon's original patch:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2011-01/msg01811.html
Bootstrapped and tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu. OK for mainline?
