In buildroot, I notice the "pass 1" build of gcc does use the 
"--with-sysroot" configure option to hide the gcc install away somewhere 
isolated.

However, "pass 2" (and also, the target build) don't use this option. Is 
there a reason for this (i.e. it doesn't work) or is it just the case 
that nobody needed this, or had time/motivation to implement it?

I ask because I'd really love to build a toolchain that can be dumped 
anywhere in the filesystem, and still work (just like those from 
Montavista for example), without e.g. putting a symlink from the "real" 
location - that feature would be very useful for toolchains stored in a 
source control system that developers check out into different places 
depending on taste.
