I on the other hand see no inconsistency. I have other systems, albeit 
without GNU as and GNU ld, where it does the same thing.

If you really want it that way for some reason, do the following at the
expense of disks space:
  
  $ cd /egcs-1.1.2/i386-mingw32
  $ mkdir bin
  $ cd bin
  $ cd /egcs-1.1.2/bin/{as,ld} .

Now it'll do what you want. I won't do this in the distributions; these
are large enough as it is.
