gentoo-overlay/sys-devel/gcc/files/gcc-spec-env.patch

    Add support for external spec file via the GCC_SPECS env var.  This
    allows us to easily control pie/ssp defaults with gcc-config profiles.

    Original patch by Rob Holland
    Extended to support multiple entries separated by ':' by Kevin F. Quinn
    Modified to use getenv instead of poisoned GET_ENVIRONMENT by Ryan Hill
