Many people have had this problem, including me initially.  You must
set the environment variable GCCEXEC to be the path to the binaries
plus the initial part of the names.  For example, my cpp is
C:/gnu/bin/gcc-cc1.ttp so my GCCEXEC definition for Gulam is:

setenv GCCEXEC c:/gnu/bin/gcc-

If my cpp were just C:/gnu/bin/cc1.ttp then the definition would be

setenv GCCEXEC c:/gnu/bin/
                         ^ note the ending slash.

For some reason the wrong error message is printed in this instance,
and if you think you've set everything else up correctly, this is the
most likely source of the problem.

This really should be in the faq posting if it isn't already.  Could
whoever is maintaining it put a note in about this?
