"-FD<x>     sets the directory where to search for compiler utilities"

How do I use it to define the default dynamic linker?

I'm not sure I understand correctly.
I added the '-dFPC-ARMEL' *after* making the compiler+rtl, if I put it 
in *before*, will be taken into account while building the rtl/packages 
or will it be ignored?
If the latter, how do I make sure the rtl/packages are built with 
'dFPC-ARMEL'?

Thanks.
