Dear Steve,

Actually, that would be unfortunate, because I currently have:

This is pretty normal.
If $PATH" was to "take care of it", then somehow $PATH would need to be constantly "rearranged" so that the desired compiler is selected correctly.
Yes, this is what is supposed to happen, for a variety of reasons. Often you select not only the compilers, but more o tools from a specific "SDK" that way.
Usually there will be scripts that do all this for you; with ELDK, that would be "eldk-switch".
IMO it would be best to specify the "absolute path to the prefix" completely, and not rely on PATH at all!
No, this is bound to fail.
Best regards,
