--- Comment #1 from Allan McRae <allan at archlinux dot org> 2012-07-06 15:40:20 UTC ---
There are other patches floating around to do this.

The one attached to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=456089 makes an
array of paths to search.  That would be easier to extend.

Others use execvp to call cpp and so use the system path, although I doubt that
will detect /lib/cpp and /usr/ccs/lib/cpp will not be a PATH so that would not
be backwards compatible.
