In May 2016 I first noticed this problem with GCC and investigated
solutions.

The fix here is to patch =E2=80=9Clang-spec.h=E2=80=9D, so that it does not=
 limit the
gcc executable to the configured set of languages.  This way we will be
able to use the same gcc executable with different languages.
