Here is the relevant stuff from one of my make-bootstrap.log (s) today:

[...]
(MAKE="gmake"; srcdir=`cd /usr/users/rittle/outside-cvs-src/gcc-3.0/gcc/fixinc &
& pwd` ; \
CC="/usr/bin/gcc"; CFLAGS="-g "; LDFLAGS=""; \
Wtraditional -pedantic -Wno-long-long"; \

It agrees with Bruce in that the bootstrap compiler is used.  I don't
know why it is not in your case.  Can you try it with gmake?  I have
found that /usr/bin/make is not always working for gcc bootstraps on
this platform.  I decided life is too short to try to fix obscure
Makefile bugs when using gmake "makes it work".
