I should explain myself more clearly.  I am installing gcc 2.3.3 on
a SUN os 4.1.1 in a directory other than /usr/lib.  Lets call the 
directory /foo.  This was complished by editing the Makefile generated
by configure so prefix = /foo.  The problem this causes is that gcc then
looks for libc.a in /foo/lib according to the -v option on gcc.  -v does
not tell me (at least I cannot see it) where the include files are
looked for.

I realize that I can instruct gcc to search the host lib and include
file by the -L and -I options. i.e.

    gcc -L/usr/lib -I/usr/include

but I would prefer to have /usr/lib and /usr/include
as the default paths used by the gcc compiler
rather than /foo/lib and /foo/include.  How do I go about modifying the
Makefile so this is the case?

Thanks in advance.
