That's odd that gcc is showing this error.  Are you certain that gcc
is really gcc, maybe it's a symlink to another compiler?  As far back
as I can remember (10 years or so) gcc has supported -B.

What does gcc -v show?

Are you installing this stuff as root?  Maybe root is finding another
gcc than your non-root ID?

Best,
Blair
