The standard in this case has nothing to do with gcc. While the "system" compiler happens to be gcc, it should function as a traditional system "cc" compiler. This means that it shouldn't be off messing with "local" directories. I feel pretty strongly about this - I've been hosed by its behavior myself when it was off snooping at some junk I had in /usr/local. Should I desire to install another 'gcc' in /usr/local/*, then that one can poke around in there, but the system supplied compiler should not. -DG
