[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

This issue happened to me again, but now I know what causes it.

- I was building Emacs from a terminal with gcc 9.3.0 loaded.
- I was launching emacsclient from a terminal with gcc 9.1.0 loaded.

I have libgccjit.so available for both gcc 9.1.0 and 9.3.0. But the version
mismatch gave the "gcc not found" error.

Note to self: Ensure that the gcc versions used for building and running
emacs are the exact same (incl the minor versions).

On the same note, is it possible for Emacs to give a more informative error
that says that libgcc of X.Y.Z version was not found?
