Where is your problem? What is wrong with the new style of
target.cfg?

[--pipe having vanished from CC is a minor bug of this snapshot - It
has already been fixed in OAR's internal source-tree.]

No, this happened on purpose.

The disadvantage of the former target.cfg was that it contained
hard-coded paths. 
This can render these target.cfgs unusable if sharing installed
copies of RTEMS across a network (eg. automounter prefixes) or if
using different versions of the toolchain.

Simply set up $PATH accordingly. In your case, make sure to have
/usr/local/bin in $PATH rsp. if using OAR's rpms make sure to have
/opt/rtems/bin in $PATH.
