FWIW, if you install egcs as a port (for instance on 3.2 or a snapshot on
-current), it gets installed as egcc, eg++, etc, etc on FreeBSD.  But if
you're stuck with Linux, I guess this wouldn't mean much.

OTOH, I have never seen the egcs executable be named "egcs".  Usually when
you install it it will get named prefix/bin/{gcc,g++,etc,etc}, where
prefix is /usr/local by default.
