When the libstdc++ library is compiled the compiler won't find the system
headers in $(tooldir)/include, since $(gcc_tooldir) does not exist.
I wonder what's wrong with using $(tooldir) in the first place?  If, say,
$(libdir) is a symlink to some unrelated directory then this will never
work, even after installation.
