+Both the local-prefix include directory and the GCC-prefix include
+directory are part of GCC's "system include" directories.  Although these
+two directories are not fixed, they need to be searched in the proper
+order for the correct processing of the include_next directive.  The
+local-prefix include directory is searched before the GCC-prefix
+include directory.  Another characteristic of system include directories
+is that pedantic warnings are turned off for headers in these directories.
+
+Some autoconf macros add @option{-I @var{directory}} options to the
+compiler command line, to ensure that directories containing installed
+packages' headers are searched.  When @var{directory} is one of GCC's
+system include directories, GCC will ignore the option so that system
+directories continue to be processed in the correct order.  This
+may result in a search order different from what was specified but the
+directory will still be searched.
+
+GCC automatically searches for ordinary libraries using
+@env{GCC_EXEC_PREFIX}.  Thus, when the same installation prefix is
+used for both GCC and packages, GCC will automatically search for
+both headers and libraries.  This provides a configuration that is
+easy to use.  GCC behaves in a manner similar to that when it is
+installed as a system compiler in @file{/usr}.

+into a single directory, but it may be simpler to use different prefixes
+and the @option{--with-local-prefix} option to specify the location of the

+(e.g., with @env{LIBRARY_PATH}).
