Hi,
the abovementioned file is used by some configure scripts bundled with
gcc (2.95), but not all of them. This induces major breakage if - for
example - $prefix is set there.
For illustration: I set prefix to "/usr" in this file. configuring gcc
with no further arguments results in the symlink
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-linux-gnu/2.95/libstdc++.a pointing to
/usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-2.a.3. But it's not there because
libstdc++'s configure ignored my setting and put this file in
/usr/local/lib.
