Thanks for pointing out the '-f' flag - that's quite important I would imagine. Gcc is a very tricky beast. The Gentoo folks (particularly Mike Frysinger / vapier) have worked very hard to quasi-standardize toolchain installation directories (library, header, and 'sysroot') so that everything 'just works'. Why it 'just works', is that certain paths (rpaths) need to be hard-coded for the toolchain to work properly. To do that the compiler needs to be built from scratch, so a binary toolchain might not be flexible enough. In spite of differing rpaths, gcc-config might still work. Let me give it a try. If it works out, I'll update the overlay and post back to this list ... I guess I should post to gentoo-embedded as well.
