 Again, I believe that manuals are an integral part of software. Therefore,
 gcc43 should install them instead of deleting them.

 Due to the conflict issues I propose to move them to a specific position,
 like this (untested due to missing computing resources, but it shows the
 idea):

         if {![catch {set ffitarget.h [glob
 ${destroot}${prefix}/lib/${name}/gcc/*/${version}/include/ffitarget.h]}
 result]} {
                 file copy ${ffitarget.h}
 ${destroot}${prefix}/include/${name}/
         }
 -
         # install select file for gcc_select
         xinstall -m 755 -d ${destroot}${prefix}/etc/select/gcc
         xinstall -m 444 ${filespath}/mp-gcc43
 ${destroot}${prefix}/etc/select/gcc/
 }}}

 It would be great if then gcc_select could provide the appropriate
 (selected) set in the standard place.
