A simple global replace may not always be a full fix.  The same change
that changed gcc-lib to gcc also split libexecsubdir off libsubdir, and
libexecsubdir is under libexecdir rather than libdir.  Thus you should
examine each reference and determine whether it is looking for libraries
(just changing gcc-lib to gcc is enough) or executables (you also need to
change libdir to libsubdir).

The directory was in fact called gcc-lib in the old versions to which
these news entries relate, so changing them is incorrect.

Note that most of the directories have their own ChangeLogs, so you need
to write ChangeLog entries for multi-directory cleanups accordingly to be
split across many directories.
