Build failure with gcc-ss-20010101

[David Ronis <ronis at ronispc dot chem dot mcgill dot ca>]

I just tried a bootstrap build with gcc-ss-20010101 on an
i686-linux(2.2.18)-gnu(2.2) that has gcc-2.95.2 and autoconf 2.49b
installed.  I got the sources via cvs and configured with the flags:
"--host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr --with-gnu-as --enable-shared
--with-gnu-ld --enable-threads=posix" and use the default CFLAGS.

Here's what the log shows (spaces added by me):

objdir/gcc is empty.  While this seems to be a different problem, this
is the 3rd snapshot with configure-related problems (see,
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/2000-12/msg00423.html).
