Bugzilla Bug 55262

gcc-config needs some cleanup.  It does weird things like "which which" which
just aren't necessary. :)

Since its interpreter in /bin/bash, it can ue the bash builtin "type -path" for
the exact same effect, removeing a dependency on which.

In stage tarballs, which doesn't exist. I don't know if gcc-config does, and
gcc-config contains some backup code in case which fails for any reason, but I
still think this cleanup is necessay to kill any bugs-in-waiting and just because
it makes for nicer code.

patch to remove gcc-config's dependency on which

Problem I have, is that it breaks if you have an alias set for what you
querry:

--
azarah@nosferatu azarah $ type -path cp
azarah@nosferatu azarah $ type -path rm
azarah@nosferatu azarah $ type -path mv
azarah@nosferatu azarah $ type -path ln
/bin/ln
--

Sure, you can now first unset the alias first, but now you have to check if
the alias exists, and then unset it, etc, so it gets as hairy, if not more ...

Thanks for the advice.

Ditto, more like it.

Done, thanks.
