To summarize the situation, we are considering adding a dirty hack in
gnu-build-system so that "libc" input is removed from
C_INCLUDE_PATH. The reason is that GCC has already a libc hardcoded in
its include search-path. Having both libc, causes build failures for
QEMU on core-updates and possibly other programs playing around
-m<something> and -ffreestanding in GCC.
Anyway, Mes does not break anything, it's just that removing "libc"
input unconditionally in set-paths breaks Mes packages. That's why
Marius was suggesting renaming "libc" to "mes-libc" or something, so
that we can proceed.
Thanks,
Mathieu
