I was wrong. The configure option --with-local-prefix=no does not work.
After running configure with this option I still end up with a gcc/Makefile
which includes the definition:
local_prefix = /usr/local
This causes /usr/local/include to be in the list of automatically searched
directories, as if a -I/usr/local/include had been added to the command
line.
Short of hand-editing gcc/Makefile (which I'm now doing), how can I run
configure so that it doesn't generate that line. I don't want my compiler
to do anything special with /usr/local/include, thank you very much.
