Yes, that was clear from your earlier message. I was just saying that
this bug has already been reported and logged in GNATS. I expect it'll be
fixed in 3.0.1.
The main reason it went unnoticed until the release is that configuring in
the source directory is NOT recommended, so GCC maintainers/testers do not
build that way out of habit.
Thanks for the report.
