One word of caution, Steve changed the name of the assembler to gas rather than
as (we now think maybe this was a mistake) so you might have to call your gas
something like gcc-gas (ugh).

An example: 

	rename these files		to these files

	/usr/local/lib/gcc-cpp		/u1/foo/gcclib/gcc-cpp
	/usr/local/lib/gcc-cc1		/u1/foo/gcclib/gcc-cc1
	/usr/local/bin/gas		/u1/foo/gcclib/gcc-gas

and use gcc -B/u1/foo/gcclib/gcc-

I hope I haven't wasted too much of your time wondering why it couldn't
find the assembler .... This is one of the pitfalls of changing things
without changing the documentation to match :-(
