Hello!

Since this is merged-usr system, it finds its component just fine,
that's why it works here in /tmp, doesn't work in a subdir of /tmp,
and doesn't work in your case (non-merged /usr).
Still, GCC is an exception. It is very rare.
Oh, I was just wondering why it worked and digging what's going on.
Thanks for the answer.
Well, I have nothing to say GCC is an exception or not, but it's
certainly an important program so I still think it's better to talk with
GCC packagers (and upstream developers perhaps?)
