I've tried to upgrade to gcc-2.7.2-5 , i've made all the things described 
above without problems. But my gcc has problems with compilation - there 
is no stdio.h and many other important .h files! they aren't in 
/usr/include directory!!!! I've found directory 
/usr/i486-linuxaout/include with many of these files and i've made link 
from /usr/include to /usr/i486-linuxaout/include but then when i try to 
compile something i have error from ld:

ld: cannot load crt1.o : no such file or directory.

So what's going on?????
