The docs discuss this a bit > https://gcc.gnu.org/install/configure.html That sets the linker flags to use when building GCC itself. It doesn't make GCC automatically add those linker flags when you compile your own programs. Even if it did add the flags when compiling your own programs, it wouldn't work well for multlib compilers where the rpath should be lib or lib64 depending on the multilib being used for a given compilation.
