By reference I mean the dynamic library reference in the gcc executable.  I
would *think* that this would be solved by rebuilding gcc from sources:

  rm -fr /nix/store/65yrkjclp6g71j9x16vcglqdw62xbnx7-gcc-wrapper-4.8.3/
  nix-env --option build-use-substitutes false -i gcc-wrapper-4.8.3

The problem, if I'm guessing correctly, is that the Hydra build server is
referencing a dylib that doesn't exist for you on your system -- a problem
which has cropped up a few times in the past.
