Search path of libs confusing

[Robert Lipe]

This is clearly inspired by my recent trip to hell caused by 
egcs picking up the wrong libstdc++.a, but looking at this
closer makes me wonder if it's really optimal.

$ ./xgcc -B./ -print-search-dirs
install: /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-sco3.2v5.0.4/egcs-2.90.15/

/


Rather than searching for libs in ./i586-pc-sco3.2v5.0.4/egcs-2.90.15 
should't it be looking in ../libraries?   Is this fallout from the
grand library  shuffle from a few months ago?


Regardless of whether -mcoff or -melf is specified, the 
search dirs are the same.   Yet the elf libraries are in 
libraries/*/*.a and the coff libraries are in libraries/coff/*/*.a.
Is this really right?   This might indicate a problem in the 
multilibbing of my target.
