Are you using the mingw shell (The "Shell" link from the GNUstep  
Startup menu) or the CMD window? You should be using Shell.  What  
does "echo $PATH" say from Shell?
It shouldn't have anything to do with the PATH though, as long as  
gcc.exe is found, gcc should find everything else. Try also:

gcc -print-prog-name=cc1obj

It should print out the full path name to the compiler.  If it just  
says "cc1obj", then something wrong.
