Reviewers, would like some insight into whether it's okay to remove the
FLAGS_FOR_TARGET. From what I can tell it comes from CROSS-GCC-ARGUMENTS in (gnu
packages cross-base) which might not be needed here since we're not
cross-building. I've tested this toolchain built without FLAGS_FOR_TARGET and it
_seems_ to work fine.

-----

Until now the following wouldn't build:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(use-modules (gnu packages commencement)
             (gnu packages gcc)
             (gnu packages base))

(make-gcc-libc gcc-9 glibc-2.27)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

* gnu/packages/base.scm (make-gcc-libc)[phases]: Add environment
variables to place the target libc on the system header search path.
[make-flags]: Remove unncessary FLAGS_FOR_TARGET.
[native-inputs]: Construct in a way that doesn't require emptying
inputs.
