It's highly recommended that you use the full pathname for configure;
there are various other problems that people have seen when using a
relative pathname. Instead of:
cd gcc-build
../gcc/configure ... options ...
use:
srcdir=`pwd`/gcc
cd gcc-build
${srcdir}/configure ... options ...
If other developers think that relative pathnames should be supported,
I'll take a closer look at your patch.
