Re: [Bug c++/38035] New: GCC 4.3.2 Make fails on ubuntu - configure: error: cannot compute suffix of object files

[satrajit <satrajit dot roy at gmail dot com>]

I have a similar problem on RHEL4 trying to build gcc-4.3.2.

I have 'gmp' & 'mpfr' installed at /usr/local and it is in the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH and 'make check's for both gmp and mpfr have passed with
--with-mpfr and --with-gmp respectively.

gcc-4.3.2/configure has also identified and satisfied with the 'gmp' and
\mpfr' installations, as far as I could tell.

the 'config.log' looks exactly as it looks in the original posted message.
