This version works OK in a cygwin shell, but not in a Windows command
prompt, because gcc.exe is a symbolic link.
Is this a packaging problem?
No. Use the target of the link directly or create a small batch file for
yourself.
gcc now uses the alternatives package to point the default compiler name at the
actual compiler. So this is the result of an intended change.
