I don't think this is a problem. We can successfully bootstrap GCC
3.2.2 with the Sun, Compaq, and HP compilers. What is odd is that, on
AIX 4.3.2, the following will print '.' but when it's run during
zlib/configure it prints the compiler usage message. That's what I'm
trying to understand.
  $ /bin/sh
  /usr/vac/bin/cc -print-multi-os-directory 2>/dev/null || echo .
