It would be fixed by staged install (install into a temporary directory 
within the build tree, run the compilers from there relying on 
relocatability so that only the install to the staging directory and 
nothing else needs to know how to put pieces together from their build 
tree locations), but that is anything but a quick fix (probably months of 
work)....
