	Compilation is done through 'target' specific wrappers. GCC wrappers work so that they add --sysroot=$SYSROOT_DIR option (SYSROOT_DIR is absolute path into target specific sysroot) and mangle all absolute paths from arguments to be relative to the $SYSROOT_DIR. After that wrappers call a real GCC binary. Path mangling is done by changing first '/' character with '='.		Compilation is done through 'target' specific wrappers.
