I figured that cc1 depends on /usr/bin.  A user invoking cc1 directly could figure the missing dependency.  Invoking cc1 indirectly from /usr/bin/gcc-4 without /usr/bin in PATH will break cc1 against expectation of /usr/bin/gcc-4 passing its containing directory to cc1 as a library search directory.
