stack setup does not use gcc specified with "with-gcc" #5493
Description
General summary/comments (optional)
expect to be able to specify the gcc path to be used with with-gcc in config.yaml and have stack setup --verbose use that version when adding a binary-dis of ghc.
Steps to reproduce
- Ensure that there is a gcc version less than 4.4 in PATH. `
$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.2.1 20070719
