inhibit_libc definition patch

[Tim Prince]

Yes, I know that gcc will build on hpux10.20 and irix6.5 and
will find the headers in /usr/include by default.  I haven't
seen it happen by default on systems where the host compiler is
gcc and there are include directories in host configuration
specific directories, such as the directory
/usr/i686-pc-cygwin/include/ of the current cygwin 1.1.0.
Perhaps this configuration is chosen so that these compilers may
be built conveniently as cross compilers e.g. on linux.
