egcs-1.1.1's cpp preprocessor didn't get installed to /usr/bin

[Alex Buell <alex dot buell at tahallah dot demon dot co dot uk>]

I was building glibc-2.0.106 today. It crapped out with a missing CPP
preprocessor build error. I did a look around and found, that cpp was of
the older egcs-1.1b, not egcs-1.1.1 as I had expected.

cpp: /usr/bin/cpp /usr/man/man1/cpp.1.gz

GNU CPP version egcs-2.91.57 19980901 (egcs-1.1 release) (i386 Linux/ELF)
#include "..." search starts here:
#include <...> search starts here:

End of search list.

Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/egcs-2.91.60/specs
gcc version egcs-2.91.60 19981201 (egcs-1.1.1 release)

Hmm. What did it do with the newer cpp? Ah yes, found it in
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/egcs-2.91.60/ Presumably there's a
problem with the installation process somewhere. 

FIX: Copy the newer cpp on top of the older cpp. Fixes things. 

Cheers,
Alex
