More often than not, the formally installed GCC ignores /usr/local/include. For example, the GCC that comes with OS-X Leopard does not look there. The GCC that comes with FreeBSD 7.0 does not look there. On the other hand, the 'cc' that came with SunOS 4.1.3 does check /usr/local/include by default, so the GCC install for that target did check /usr/local/include by default so that it would match the system compiler. It should not be assumed that if the compiler is GCC that it will pay any attention to /usr/local/include.
