Actually, it's not _required_; gcc will look for headers in, IIRC,
${prefix}/${target}/sys-include if you don't specify --with-headers.
This is described in the Info documentation.

Actually, last I looked it looks in

${prefix}/lib/gcc-lib/${target}/${version}/../../../../${target}/sys-include

or so, which is a bit annoying if
${prefix}/lib/gcc-lib/${target}/${version} doesn't exist yet.
