In previous versions of GCC, the @code{gcc} driver program looked for
@code{as} and @code{ld} in various places; for example, in files
beginning with @file{/usr/local/lib/gcc-}. GCC version 2 looks for
them in the directory
@file{/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/@var{target}/@var{version}}.
Thus, to use a version of @code{as} or @code{ld} that is not the system
default, for example @code{gas} or GNU @code{ld}, you must put them in
that directory (or make links to them from that directory).

In Ultrix 4.0 on the MIPS machine, @file{stdio.h} does not work with GNU
CC at all unless it has been fixed with @code{fixincludes}. This causes
problems in building GCC. Once GCC is installed, the problems go
away.
To work around this problem, when making the stage 1 compiler, specify
this option to Make:
@example
GCC_FOR_TARGET="./xgcc -B./ -I./include"

When making stage 2 and stage 3, specify this option:
