I don't know why that is off hand.  It could be a difference between ln
in Darwin and ln in GNU coreutils.

You're probably right, and that's exactly the problem: the include/ in
gcc is not sufficient, it only contains a small subset of what the
include/ in src contains, so that is bound to fail if the gcc one is
used.
