I'm sorry that you haven't received any response earlier, but I think
your problem is that you invoke `make` in the documentation directory
describing the installation, while you should do that in the srcdir
that you have created in the previous step.
Does this solve your problem?
In general, should you have any suggestions on how we can improve the
install documentation for our users, please let us know! (Also patches
are certainly welcome!)
You'll find the most current version of the instructions at
<http://gcc.gnu.org/install/>.
