[Clfs-support] your gcc patch

[Koornstra, Reinoud]

So this patch is to make sure gcc is looking in /tools when booted and not in /lib while you're using gcc on the system?
Thanks,

Reinoud.

It needs to be that way because the sysroot is at ${CLFS}/tools, but the interpreter is to be at /tools/lib{32,64} respectively for multilib and mips

Without /tools in the gcc specs, he host would be used, we don' want that.
When a person uses the boot method or chroot method, the toolchain needs to be using /tools (which is /mnt/clfs/tools when not chrooted or booted into the temp system).
