Building gcc-4.4.2 on CentOS 5.3

[Jeff Layton <laytonjb at att dot net>]

Afternoon,

I'm trying to build gcc-4.4.2 (C and Fortran) on a CentOS 5.3 system 
(gcc 4.1.2). But I'm hitting an error I don't know how to deal correct.

I get the following error during "make":

make[3]: Leaving directory

I then checked the config.log file in 
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc/libgcc and found the following:

Any suggestions?
