the problem mb that i did an upgrade 8.2 -> 9.0rc1, not a full install,
but it's still an omission by the upgrade script:
'gcc' & 'cc' should point to the newer version
& 'gcc-2.96' to the older version if installed.
the set of symlinks above leads nowhere
& users won't be able to compile anything.
