The original poster may be referring to the move of GCC's tool
executables (cc1, cc1plus, collect2 and so on) into a subdirectory of
libexec (well, $libexecdir, where the GNU Coding Standards have always
suggested that `executable programs to be run by other programs' should
reside).
This was implemented by Geoff Keating in
<http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2003-07/msg02803.html>
(the version that was finally committed was
<http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2003-07/msg03026.html>).
Nobody objected.
But you're right in that the complaint is vague enough that it
could refer to virtually anything else ;}
