gcc patch for version from OpenSUSE

g++ -print-file-name=plugin uses the full version number in the path when just
the major version number is all that's required for compatibility. This means
that plugins have to require the specific version of gcc and have to be rebuild
after every update to gcc. For what it's worth, gcc on Ubuntu and OpenSUSE have
already made this change and I've attached the patch from OpenSUSE that I
believe does the change.
