My memory of the last couple of egcs/glibc installs is that the
/lib/cpp symlink is not updated, and root had better have umask 022 or
permissions don't get set right. Even with umask 022,
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/... has an include directory owned by whoever did the
compiling, and permissions also unchanged.

And I do remember getting that strange message, but I'm not at all
sure if it was caused by the mis-behaving install.

(I sent email to the maintainers, but they alleged it was my fault,
and it hasn't been fixed in the year since then.)
