OK, this is fair enough (I made a mistake with "locate" too), but
another important end result of this is that even with gcc 3.3
installed, Xcode 2.5 still cant use gcc 3.3. It only starts to work if
Xcode 3.0 is also installed, which installs gcc-3.3 into the base system.
So one, the install text is wrong for Leopard, and two, Xcode 2.5 is
broken for not looking in it's own folder for gcc-3.3.
To be honest, I'm at a complete loss to understand why gcc 3.3 needs
to be installed into the base system at all. I have in the past built
gcc 3.x on Linux as a cross compiler for something else, and it was
self-contained in it's own folder set.
