You cut out the part that would have been useful, namely the -B and -I
arguments passed to xgcc.

The limits.h that was found is gcc's private copy, not the actual system
limits.h.  gcc uses this technique when it needs to amend the contents
of a system header, by installing its own limits.h in its private
include directory that contains the gcc-specific parts, and at the end
it does #include_next <limits.h> so that the actual system limits.h gets
picked up at that point.  It also does something similar when it needs
to deal with buggy/broken/noncompliant system headers, by making a copy
of the offending header in its private include dir and then fixincluding
it there, obviously without the include_next.  The details don't matter,
the error is materially equivalent to all of the above, namely, a system
header could not be found.
