------- Comment #7 from dje at gcc dot gnu dot org  2005-12-07 13:19 -------
Changing the behavior of GCC -print-search-dirs is a bad idea and will break
other applications relying on the current behavior.  Introducing a major
incompatibility into GCC is not a solution and I strongly oppose the proposal.

There is an appropriate option (-print-multi-os-directory), which libtool is
planning to use in a future release.  GCC should not be working around a
libtool problem.  A Linux distro can make changes to a local copy, but this
change should not be applied to FSF GCC.
