BLOCKER: package doesn't acknowledge RPM_OPT_FLAGS.

In FSF's GCC, this is caused by older GCC's having problems in passing down
CFLAGS (rsp. CFLAGS_FOR_HOST etc.) to it's sub-configure scripts. 

The recommended work-around in FSF-GCC is to override "CC" when invoking
configure, i.e. to
CC="%{__cc} ${RPM_OPT_FLAGS}" ./configure

I'd assume a similar step is necessary to make gpc RPM_OPT_FLAGS-aware.

[Beware: FORTIFY is known to detect memory leaks in some versions of GCC.
Depending on how clean gpc is, it therefore might be necessary to filter FORTIFY
from the CFLAGS being passed to GCC's configure.]
