First try building gcc the recommended way, quote:
First, we highly recommend that GCC be built into a separate directory
than the sources which does not reside within the source tree. This is
how we generally build GCC; building where srcdir == objdir should
still work, but doesn't get extensive testing; building where objdir
is a subdirectory of srcdir is unsupported.
end quote (from fifth para. of http://gcc.gnu.org/install/configure.html).
