This is strange, as I am using GCC 3.2 myself, and this obviously seems to
require adding /usr/local to the search path.
Maybe there's some difference between how Cygwin behaves and how some Linux
distros behave? Notably, it might be interseting to know how RedHat Linux
behaves, as Cygwin is maintained by RedHat.
Anyway, if you or anyone else sends me modified configre scripts for Simgear
and FlightGear both including /usr/local for searching for the Metakit and
Simgear libs, resp., I could test if they work (which doesn't imply them
necessarily to work on all other systems, of course).
BTW, is there a similar option --with-simgear=/path/to/simgear when building
FlightGear?
