I think this is why GCC created the --with-sysroot option while building GCC
itself.  And really -nostdlib is not just for "alternate library ecosystem". 
It is so you can supply all the libraries you want to link against explicitly. 
It is used to link glibc and other libc's tobegin with.  Also if you list the
full path to the library there is no search involved.
