I am seeing the following two problems problem in gcc 4.1.1.
The front-end driver contains paths from the --prefix where the toolchain was
built, when it is installed at a different location. It was built using
--with-sysroot.
I am aware of bug 17621, and have applied all of Carlos's patches to gcc 4.1.1.
They do not fix the behavior that I am seeing.
Secondly, some of the search paths are /usr/lib/.. and /lib/... which is
inappropriate for a cross compiler.
I have not tried a newer compiler, but I fixed these issues for myself in
4.1.1. (Which I have to do, since upgrading our toolchain is not in my
organization's near-term schedule, and fixing problems in our current toolchain
falls on me!)
Patches and discussion follow.

Summary: References to original ${prefix} paths in relocated
toolchain and /lib and /usr/lib search paths appear in
cross toolchain.
