At present time, in this case (gcc-based toolchain) the probably
simpliest solution is to use symlinks.

However, a gcc-based cross-toolchain not containing its tools in
their canoncialized form, justifies doubts on whether the toolchain
was correctly built/configured (not having them indicates a native
toolchain).
