I might be mistaken, but I think this is intentional behaviour. FWIW, I have faced a different toolchain relocation problem in the GCC 4.1.0 release on MinGW. I configured and built GCC using "--prefix=/mingw" on one machine where "/mingw" maps to "D:\MiscAppz\MinGW" (I used MSYS as the build environment). The compiler built, installed and ran fine on this machine. However, when I moved the binaries to another machine where MinGW was installed in "D:\MinGW", the compiler was not able to find the C runtime headers, even though the folder structure was exactly the same. It was however able to find executables from binutils like as, ld, etc. I worked around this problem temporarily by just specifying the system include path explicitly in the CFLAGS of my programme's build script. There was another curious problem with this GCC, even on the original machine where it was built: when run from within the MSYS environment, everything was hunky-dory but when run from the Windows command prompt, it used to give a "_spawnvp: No such file or directory" error when one tried to compile something.
