Controlling the Compilation Driver, `gcc'
=========================================
`SWITCH_TAKES_ARG (CHAR)'
     A C expression which determines whether the option `-CHAR' takes
     arguments.  The value should be the number of arguments that
     option takes-zero, for many options.
     By default, this macro is defined to handle the standard options
     properly.  You need not define it unless you wish to add additional
     options which take arguments.
`WORD_SWITCH_TAKES_ARG (NAME)'
     A C expression which determines whether the option `-NAME' takes
     arguments.  The value should be the number of arguments that
     option takes-zero, for many options.  This macro rather than
     `SWITCH_TAKES_ARG' is used for multi-character option names.
     By default, this macro is defined as
     `DEFAULT_WORD_SWITCH_TAKES_ARG', which handles the standard options
     properly.  You need not define `WORD_SWITCH_TAKES_ARG' unless you
     wish to add additional options which take arguments.  Any
     redefinition should call `DEFAULT_WORD_SWITCH_TAKES_ARG' and then
     check for additional options.
`SWITCHES_NEED_SPACES'
     A string-valued C expression which is nonempty if the linker needs
     a space between the `-L' or `-o' option and its argument.
     If this macro is not defined, the default value is 0.
`CPP_SPEC'
     A C string constant that tells the GNU CC driver program options to
     pass to CPP.  It can also specify how to translate options you
     give to GNU CC into options for GNU CC to pass to the CPP.
     Do not define this macro if it does not need to do anything.
`NO_BUILTIN_SIZE_TYPE'
     If this macro is defined, the preprocessor will not define the
     builtin macro `__SIZE_TYPE__'.  The macro `__SIZE_TYPE__' must
     then be defined by `CPP_SPEC' instead.
     This should be defined if `SIZE_TYPE' depends on target dependent
     flags which are not accessible to the preprocessor.  Otherwise, it
     should not be defined.
`NO_BUILTIN_PTRDIFF_TYPE'
     If this macro is defined, the preprocessor will not define the
     builtin macro `__PTRDIFF_TYPE__'.  The macro `__PTRDIFF_TYPE__'
     must then be defined by `CPP_SPEC' instead.
     This should be defined if `PTRDIFF_TYPE' depends on target
     dependent flags which are not accessible to the preprocessor.
     Otherwise, it should not be defined.
`SIGNED_CHAR_SPEC'
     A C string constant that tells the GNU CC driver program options to
     pass to CPP.  By default, this macro is defined to pass the option
     `-D__CHAR_UNSIGNED__' to CPP if `char' will be treated as
     `unsigned char' by `cc1'.
     Do not define this macro unless you need to override the default
     definition.
`CC1_SPEC'
     A C string constant that tells the GNU CC driver program options to
     pass to `cc1'.  It can also specify how to translate options you
     give to GNU CC into options for GNU CC to pass to the `cc1'.
     Do not define this macro if it does not need to do anything.
`CC1PLUS_SPEC'
     A C string constant that tells the GNU CC driver program options to
     pass to `cc1plus'.  It can also specify how to translate options
     you give to GNU CC into options for GNU CC to pass to the
     `cc1plus'.
     Do not define this macro if it does not need to do anything.
`ASM_SPEC'
     A C string constant that tells the GNU CC driver program options to
     pass to the assembler.  It can also specify how to translate
     options you give to GNU CC into options for GNU CC to pass to the
     assembler.  See the file `sun3.h' for an example of this.
     Do not define this macro if it does not need to do anything.
`ASM_FINAL_SPEC'
     A C string constant that tells the GNU CC driver program how to
     run any programs which cleanup after the normal assembler.
     Normally, this is not needed.  See the file `mips.h' for an
     example of this.
     Do not define this macro if it does not need to do anything.
`LINK_SPEC'
     A C string constant that tells the GNU CC driver program options to
     pass to the linker.  It can also specify how to translate options
     you give to GNU CC into options for GNU CC to pass to the linker.
     Do not define this macro if it does not need to do anything.
`LIB_SPEC'
     Another C string constant used much like `LINK_SPEC'.  The
     difference between the two is that `LIB_SPEC' is used at the end
     of the command given to the linker.
     If this macro is not defined, a default is provided that loads the
     standard C library from the usual place.  See `gcc.c'.
`STARTFILE_SPEC'
     Another C string constant used much like `LINK_SPEC'.  The
     difference between the two is that `STARTFILE_SPEC' is used at the
     very beginning of the command given to the linker.
     If this macro is not defined, a default is provided that loads the
     standard C startup file from the usual place.  See `gcc.c'.
`ENDFILE_SPEC'
     Another C string constant used much like `LINK_SPEC'.  The
     difference between the two is that `ENDFILE_SPEC' is used at the
     very end of the command given to the linker.
     Do not define this macro if it does not need to do anything.
`LINK_LIBGCC_SPECIAL'
     Define this macro meaning that `gcc' should find the library
     `libgcc.a' by hand, rather than passing the argument `-lgcc' to
     tell the linker to do the search; also, `gcc' should not generate
     `-L' options to pass to the linker (as it normally does).
`LINK_LIBGCC_SPECIAL_1'
     Define this macro meaning that `gcc' should find the library
     `libgcc.a' by hand, rather than passing the argument `-lgcc' to
     tell the linker to do the search.
`RELATIVE_PREFIX_NOT_LINKDIR'
     Define this macro to tell `gcc' that it should only translate a
     `-B' prefix into a `-L' linker option if the prefix indicates an
     absolute file name.
`STANDARD_EXEC_PREFIX'
     Define this macro as a C string constant if you wish to override
     the standard choice of `/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/' as the default
     prefix to try when searching for the executable files of the
     compiler.
`MD_EXEC_PREFIX'
     If defined, this macro is an additional prefix to try after
     `STANDARD_EXEC_PREFIX'.  `MD_EXEC_PREFIX' is not searched when the
     `-b' option is used, or the compiler is built as a cross compiler.
`STANDARD_STARTFILE_PREFIX'
     Define this macro as a C string constant if you wish to override
     the standard choice of `/usr/local/lib/' as the default prefix to
     try when searching for startup files such as `crt0.o'.
`MD_STARTFILE_PREFIX'
     If defined, this macro supplies an additional prefix to try after
     the standard prefixes.  `MD_EXEC_PREFIX' is not searched when the
     `-b' option is used, or when the compiler is built as a cross
     compiler.
`MD_STARTFI
