Jeff's right. There is just discussion about, but no patches
submitted to the list.

Precisely. Just added two small tweaks, which may or may not be
applicable anymore.

I'd love to see this in the tree. The only gotcha is when you're building
a cross-compiler my way where I have target includes/libraries already
installed instead of using --with-headers/libs options; I have to first 
run `cd gcc; make installdirs; cd ..' so that relative lookup will work. 
This of course probably affects only me, so not an issue. 

Regards,
Mumit
