Here's a quick patch.  It only covers the libc (libc.so, crti.o, etc)
part of the problem.  The right way to deal with libgcc1 is still
being considered at Bug#634821.

If someone knows how to expand this advice to include settings for
--with-libs and --with-headers when building GCC from source, that
would be nice.

   compiler:
 
-    -I/usr/include/$arch --sysroot /usr/lib/$arch
+    -I/usr/include/$arch -B/lib/$arch -B/usr/lib/$arch
