The first thing I would check, gcc-config -l and see what it says.  It's
been a good long while but I've had it update and for some reason not
switch properly.  Sometimes, I set it even if it shows it is correct and
then it works.  It has been a while since it did that but it is quick
and easy to test.  If it doesn't work, maybe someone else will have a
better idea.
