Ok, I got a lot of mail on this.  Thanks already... :-)

I do appriciate the thought of adding this information to the
distributed documentation.  While I like the GNU products, and agree
with %97 of the FSF philosophy, I don't want to spend days and days
trying to decrypt how things are accomplished.  I was rather surprised
to hear that $(libdir)/gcc- is a search path, for instance...

Thanks for all the help...
