I did what you suggested. 

parrot / # cat test.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
 printf("Hello world\n");
}
parrot / # gcc --verbose test.c

It seems to suggest the directory
"/usr/local/stow/gcc-3.0.3-compile-with-gcc-2.95.3/lib/gcc-lib/@target_alias@/3.0.3/include"
does not exist. But assuming 'target_alias' is sparc-sun-solaris2.8 (which seems
perfectly reasonable on a Sun running Solaris 8), then it does. All the
permissions of the directories look okay too : 755. 

parrot
/usr/local/stow/gcc-3.0.3-compile-with-gcc-2.95.3/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/3.0.3/include
# pwd
/usr/local/stow/gcc-3.0.3-compile-with-gcc-2.95.3/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/3.0.3/include
