Bug#645021: gcc-4.6: build error on REVERSE_CROSS (files in "4.6.1" dir instead of "4.6")

[Kyle Moffett <Kyle.D.Moffett@boeing.com>]

Source: gcc-4.6
Version: 4.6.1-15
Severity: wishlist

When building in REVERSE_CROSS mode (IE: when trying to build a native
compiler for another architecture with an existing cross-compiler, the
build fails with the following error:

  $ apt-get gcc-4.6=4.6.1-15
  $ ( cd gcc-4.6-4.6.1 && dpkg-buildpackage -apowerpcspe -b -us -uc )
  [...]
  dh_movefiles: debian/tmp/usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-linux-gnuspe/4.6/libgcov.a not found (supposed to put it in gcc-4.6)

It looks like it is being put in the wrong directory:

  $ find . -name '*libgcov*'
  ./gcc-4.6-4.6.1/debian/tmp/usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-linux-gnuspe/4.6.1/libgcov.a
  ./gcc-4.6-4.6.1/build/powerpc-linux-gnuspe/libgcc/libgcov.a
  ./gcc-4.6-4.6.1/build/gcc/libgcov.a

There seem to have been some similar bugs regarding recent changes to
the "gcc -print-file-name" command, EG: #643891, #644849

Unfortunately I'm not having any luck figuring out what I need to fix to
make this build.  Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers,
Kyle Moffett
