I tried creating > a symlink from gcc-4 -> gcc in /bin, but it didn't help. Yes, I've posted about this some time ago. You absolutely need to name the symlink "gcc-4.exe". You could also patch out the EXEEXT appendage that makes that particular check fail when it encounters a symlink of just "gcc-4", but renaming the symlink is easier.
