Well, I too have all files in one dir /usr/gcc so I have a shell script in
/usr/bin that looks like this:
/usr/gcc/gcc -B/usr/gcc/gcc- -I/usr/gcc/include -L/usr/gcc $*
That works okay, but I also have some symbolic links for the programs such
as gcc-ar they are linked to:
gcc-ar
ar
gar
all in /usr/bin (THough the exe itself is in /usr/gcc)
