Why is it a mistake? I added the functionality of searching the
/usr/local/include/mingw directory and tried to preserve the
ordering that gcc requires.

The fact that the mingw directory needs to be included before the
gcc include directory is problematic.  It's counter to the way
that gcc is supposed to operate.  I'll have to think about what
to do there, or, better yet, Mumit or Earnie will tell me precisely
what they want done.

Anyway, I made the gcc available specifically for testing.  This is a
work in progress.

I'm aware that it is not a single line in the specs file however, if you
broke up the old and new specs file into distinct lines, a diff would
show specifically what changed.  I don't have a problem physically viewing
long lines.

That's a bug.
