Description (last modified by )
It would be nice if our gcc2 supported -iquote. The reason being, while implementing libcurl support in libpackage, I came across the following problem: including <curl/curl.h> doesn't work for gcc2 from our build system, because curl.h then includes some of its other headers via #include "filename". Thanks to Ingo, it was determined that this was due to the use of -I- in the build system also having the side effect of disabling searching in those dirs for quoted includes.
Consequently, it was determined that implementing iquote support for gcc2 would be the best way to resolve the problem going forward, as we may later encounter the same problem with other 3rd party libraries, though it's been worked around for libcurl for now [1].

At this point it's just not worth adding such support. Libpackage no longer uses CURL though, so the hack is gone, and this ticket can be closed I guess.
