The paths to various binaries are embedded which differs on a usrmerge
vs. non-usrmerge system.

Patch attached which passes variables to configure to use the
non-usrmerge locations, as usrmerge installations typically have
compatibility symlinks, but not vice-versa. The patch also sets
variables to ensure consistent values for bash, which can be triggered
when /bin/sh points to bash.


This patch alone does not fix all reproducibility issues (e.g. build
paths, which are only tested on unstable and experimental), but it
should build reproducibly in bookworm/testing once binutils-xtensa-lx106
is built with deterministic archives enabled:

Thanks for maintaining gcc-xtensa-lx106!
