This stuff is all over my head but I'm just wondering why you would mix backticks and $(). Why not just use: echo $(dirname $(gcc -print-file-name=libgcc.a))/specs ?
Basically it's because, purely through habit, I only ever use backticks. Unfortunately, one can't nest backticks, so I came up with the mixture of backticks and $(). Oh, plus the fact that in my makefile based scripts the '$' needs escaping, so the fewer of those I have to have the better :)
