That churns for a couple hours. (yes, old and crappy equipment. No options here..)
Then:

Suggestions?
Since GCC 4.8.2 is known to build on SPARC Solaris 10, the first thing
I would consider is which compiler you are using to build GCC.
Can you perhaps stage the build by building an earlier version of GCC and using that to
build GCC 4.8.2?
Still have the same problem, and this is after switching machines, with a fresh
install of Sparc Solaris10, a new user, no environment stuff set.
Building gcc-4.8.2 using gcc-3.4.6 from sunfreeware gets along far enough to create
what I believe is a stage one xgcc, then that binary crashes with an internal compiler error as above.
The build starts with Make 3.81 gcc 3.4.6 and bunutils 2.17.
I guess my only option now is to try to build an intermediate, maybe 4.2.* gcc and try it again.
