But we don't know of any really clean way to fix it.
Provide a configure switch --with-hardcoded-gccdeps that adds run path entries for pre-installed support libraries? Of course the same could be done for when support libraries are built as part of the GCC source tree, but then we'd have to know about whether run path entries override LD_LIBRARY_PATH settings, and/or might need to relink upon installation in order to not use old preinstalled stuff while inside the build tree ... but I digress with a problem that has already been solved elsewhere, which I suppose is not acceptable to GCC for some reason.
