How does gcc search the right paths when GCC_EXEC_PREFIX points to non-existent directory because gcc isn't installed? Even if there is a GCC_EXEC_PREFIX directory, it could be a very old gcc installation and you may search very old files, instead of the current ones, which are just built, but not installed yet. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36443
