But there are certainly sysroot uses where include-fixed is still relevant - where the sysroot is based on a copy of that used when GCC was built, but with extra libraries added. (That's the case of sysroots that works most reliably for other reasons as well; GCC's runtime libraries get configured depending on the libc libraries and headers present when GCC was built, and in some cases the headers affect the configuration of GCC itself as well as GCC's libraries.) http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2010-07/msg02088.html http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2004-11/msg00255.html
