[GCC-XML] VCToolkit

[Roman Yakovenko]

Thanks. I definitly will try your patch. The solution I was looking
for is a little bit different.
In GCCXML manuals written 
"...Advanced users can simulate other compilers by manually configuring the
GCCXML_FLAGS setting. ..."
So, I thought I need to change some flags and give path to compiler.
