Okay, now I understand. -I /some/dir should place specified headers at the front of the list; that is, the standard headers should be searched *after* directories specified with -I. However, you have to use -I- *before* -I because -I only looks for #include "foo.h", not for #include <foo.h>. Bear in mind that -I directories are scanned left to right. You might also find it useful to use the -nostdinc option, which turns off searching the standard system directories for include files. The downside to this should be clear, though. Finally, use the -H option to tell GCC to print the names of the header files it is using. For more infomation, have a look at the "Preprocessor Options" and the"Directory Options" nodes of the GCC info file.
