My gut reaction is that your installation is broken (or you don't have
libc-dev installed?). You should not need to specify /usr/include or
/usr/lib. Also, I don't think it matters if you #include "stdio.h" or
#include <stdio.h>. The difference, if I understand correctly, is in the
first case, the compiler will look for stdio.h in the current directory
first. If its not found there, then it will look in the standard places
(i.e. /usr/include). In the second case, it just looks in the standard
places. This gives you the dubious ability to redefine system header
files.
