Hi Linpeng,

Yes I encountered this issue on a fresh install of prefix. For some reason at
this point in building stage3 these lines

rename from wrapper.c
rename to wrapper.c.in
--- a/wrapper.c
+++ b/wrapper.c.in

in 'gcc-config-prefix-1.8-r221.patch' don't appear to be doing what's
intended. If you modify 'gcc-config-1.8-r00.1.ebuild' to read:

src_prepare() {
        epatch "${FILESDIR}"/${PN}-prefix-${PV}-r${PREFIXREV}.patch
        epatch "${FILESDIR}"/${P}-copy-gcc-libs.patch
	mv wrapper.c wrapper.c.in
}

and then regenerate the manifest (from a shell where EPREFIX and PATH have been
exported), i.e.

ebuild <path-to-gcc-config-1.8-r00.1.ebuild> manifest

then you should be able to continue with building stage3. This worked for me. It
is not a solution, just a band-aid.
