Hi,
I have some query regarding the way gcc resolves the search directory
for standard libraries like libc. When I run command "gcc -v test.c" i
get the following output
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/specs

/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/../../../crtn.o
As the last section of the output illustrated that the location that the
linker looks for libraries like libc etc is
"-L/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2" and
"-L/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/../../.."
Is there anyway i can change the default search location.
I believe that by passing my own spec file to gcc as gcc
-specs=<myspecs> test.c, i can change the default include path and also
the path to look for for crt0.o etc.
