When the sources are present in the GCC source tree (which is what the
download_prerequisites script does) then those ones will be used.

If you want to use the system versions, just remove the "gmp", "mpfr",
"mpc" and "isl" symlinks in the GCC source tree. You can also remove
the gmp-6.1.0, mpfr-3.1.6 etc. directories, but doing so isn't
necessary. The configure script only looks for the unversioned names,
so removing the symlinks is sufficient.
