AIX 5.3 gcc 4.1.2 bootstrap error

[Ben Scurr <bs at teamwpc dot co dot uk>]

I was wondering if anyone could help me as I'm at my wits end regarding 
building gcc on AIX. I have the toolkit version of gcc 4.0.0 installed 
(and associated binutils) and I am trying to build version 4.1.2 
(preferable 4.2.x, but I have other build issues on that version). My 
configuration is as follows:

# oslevel -r
5300-04

# gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0
Configured with: ../configure --with-as=/usr/bin/as 
--with-ld=/usr/bin/ld --disable-nls --enable-languages=c,c++ 
--prefix=/opt/freeware --enable-threa
ds --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs --host=powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0
Thread model: aix
gcc version 4.0.0

# gmake -v

--enable-languages=c,c++ --disable-nls --disable-shared 
--with-as=/usr/bin/as --with-ld=/usr/bin/ld

during the bootstrap I get:

I have tried bootstrapping 4.1.2, 4.1.1 and even 4.0.1, all of which 
have recorded successful builds on the gcc website on AIX, yet all of 
them fail in the same way on my machine. Can anyone help please?

Regards

Ben
