I see your point.
I've looked at something like this: 
https://github.com/pyhalov/oi-userland/compare/gcc-links  to avoid 
duplicating libraries in /usr/gcc/4.x/lib  and /usr/lib and avoid mess 
with RPATH (for example, libgfortran.so has RPATH set to $PREFIX/lib, so 
if we link with it libraries from /usr/lib/gcc/4.7 become preferred to 
libraries in /usr/lib.
