Prepends stuff to it. I know it adds the one for your compiler, according to 
the Kit configuration, but it may add other things.

Maybe you should give more information on the problem. If your compiler is not 
called "g++", then you must have a mkspec, but you didn't mention that.

Also, please compile on the command-line and confirm it works. After that, let
