would a gcc by any other name still smell?

    My problem is more with the C++ include files.  If you leave the 2.7.2
    ones lying around in /usr/local/lib/g++-include, they are found before
    the egcs ones in /usr/local/include/g++.  I have had to delete the old
    ones or use a different --prefix for one of the versions.  Any other
    solutions?
    
Yes, see < http://www.cygnus.com/ml/egcs-bugs/1997-Oct/0197.html >.
