I added a warning under -v and updated more of the documentation
to describe the new treatment of -Idir when dir duplicates a system
directory. I have also implemented a suggestion from Nix regarding
revising the search in remove_dup_nonsys_dirs. This makes it more
efficient, although it is less obvious now as to what value is being
returned.
Tested by inspection of cpp output with -v and a bootstrap-check
under hppa-linux.
Ok for main?
