I tried compiling version 12.2.0 and it attempts to access system headers
at /usr/include, but on mac the system headers are stored at

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/include.

Here's my error:
rm -rf include-fixed; mkdir include-fixed
chmod a+rx include-fixed
if [ -d ../prev-gcc ]; then \
	  cd ../prev-gcc && \
	  /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/make
real-install-headers-tar DESTDIR=`pwd`/../gcc/ \
	    libsubdir=. ; \
	else \
	  set -e; for ml in `cat fixinc_list`; do \
	    sysroot_headers_suffix=`echo ${ml} | sed -e 's/;.*$//'`; \
	    multi_dir=`echo ${ml} | sed -e 's/^[^;]*;//'`; \
	    fix_dir=include-fixed${multi_dir}; \
	    if ! false && test ! -d `echo /usr/include | sed -e :a -e
's,[^/]*/\.\.\/,,' -e ta`; then \
	      echo The directory that should contain system headers does not

	      if test "x`echo /usr/include | sed -e :a -e 's,[^/]*/\.\.\/,,'

	      then sleep 1; else exit 1; fi; \
	    fi; \
	    /bin/sh ../../gcc-12.2.0/gcc/../mkinstalldirs ${fix_dir}; \
	    chmod a+rx ${fix_dir} || true; \
	    (TARGET_MACHINE='x86_64-apple-darwin21.6.0'; srcdir=`cd
../../gcc-12.2.0/gcc; ${PWDCMD-pwd}`; \
	      SHELL='/bin/sh'; MACRO_LIST=`${PWDCMD-pwd}`/macro_list ; \
	      gcc_dir=`${PWDCMD-pwd}` ; \
	      export TARGET_MACHINE srcdir SHELL MACRO_LIST && \
	      cd ../build-x86_64-apple-darwin21.6.0/fixincludes && \

	        `echo /usr/include | sed -e :a -e 's,[^/]*/\.\.\/,,' -e ta`  ); \
	    rm -f ${fix_dir}/syslimits.h; \
	    if [ -f ${fix_dir}/limits.h ]; then \
	      mv ${fix_dir}/limits.h ${fix_dir}/syslimits.h; \
	    else \
	      cp ../../gcc-12.2.0/gcc/gsyslimits.h ${fix_dir}/syslimits.h; \
	    fi; \
	    chmod a+r ${fix_dir}/syslimits.h; \
	  done; \
	fi
The directory that should contain system headers does not exist:
