If you're trying to build libssp with a preinstalled compiler (either gcc or clang), -B is not appropriate, because the compiler will find whatever it needs in /usr/lib. In fact, overriding the paths with something pointing to a partial gcc build might do more harm than good.

we're building freebsd, this includes building gcc... I am currently 
investigating how to do this in a different way
