Working with gcc in general, I've had real problems with specifying
the same --prefix as that of the compiler used to do the bootstrapping.
I've always wondered why -B${prefix} gets passed in, when (in theory)
${prefix} doesn't exist yet. Parts of the old compiler end up living on
into the new compiler, causing serious funkiness. Maybe this is a similar
problem, or maybe I'm on crack.
Also speaking of config work, between the .8 snapshot and this morning I've
gotten sixteen private emails (my address is on the project homepage),
reporting the 2.95.2/-Werror thing that prevents building. What are the
chances of an eventual .8.1 snapshot now that a workaround for that is in?
