I suppose you installed gcc in /usr/local. GCC then regards
/usr/local/include as a system include directory which implicitly is
searched for header files after any other non-system include
directories. 

If you specify -I/usr/local/include (what you don't need to) GCC
denotes this directory now as a non-system directory and thus changes
the search order for header files which it was just kind enough
informing you about.

Just don't specify /usr/local/include as non-system include directory
if it already is a system directory.

>From 'man cpp':

-I directory 
    Add the directory directory to the end of the list of directories
    to be searched for header files.  This can be used to override a
    system header file, substituting your own version, since these
    directories are searched before the system header file
    directories.  If you use more than one `-I' option, the
    directories are scanned in left-to-right order; the standard
    system directories come after.
