Hi.
When you build gcc from sources, a few headers are installed to
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/6.1.1/include-fixed/
The exact list of these headers depends on packages installed. For example:
xorg-x11-proto-devel: X11/Xw32defs.h
unix => __unix__
openssl-devel: openssl/bn.h
linux => __linux__
libpaper-devel: paper.h
__STDC__ => __STRICT_ANSI__
If you install a newer package version, the headers in "/usr/include/"
get replaced and the headers in "include-fixed/" become outdated.
How is this supposed to work?

It does not, which is why distribution builds generally disable
fixincludes or at the very least do not install the rewritten headers.
