I think that I was not clear enough. I am speaking about GCC system 
directories only. You were not required to specify GCC include/lib paths 
in the previous versions we have used. We have been using 3.4.1 on 
Windows/Linux for sometime now without needing to specify include/lib 
paths. Has this requirement changed for 4+?
