We have a lot of options that are vaguely similiar to this. It's also reminiscent of -iprefix. But I actually
think the closest analogy is to -B. Its effect on header and library paths is the same as -B, but it
doesn't change the search for compiler executables.
And while Syd is right that Apple would find this feature useful, I don't think there's anything about it
that's specific to Apple or Darwin. I expect it to be generally useful for people who are trying to deal
with multiple similar-but-not-identical versions of an operating system.
