>Some of the headers are not created? What tar did you use? Because the filename for this file goes past the limit of a POSIX tar, GNU tar is required to untar the GCC now.
Oh dear, sorry about the noise - Looking at my own error message about the missing files and where they are, I found that it is the vendor tar which is broken - it truncates file path names to 100 characters - this is normally not noticeable except in the libstdc++ dir where there are a lot of files with long names. e.g. gnu tar: --------- $ ls gcc-4.3.1/libstdc++-v3/include/ext/pb_ds/detail/resize_policy cc_hash_max_collision_check_resize_trigger_imp.hpp hash_standard_resize_policy_imp.hpp hash_exponential_size_policy_imp.hpp sample_resize_policy.hpp hash_load_check_resize_trigger_imp.hpp sample_resize_trigger.hpp hash_load_check_resize_trigger_size_base.hpp sample_size_policy.hpp hash_prime_size_policy_imp.hpp vendor tar: ---- $ ls gcc-4.3.1/libstdc++-v3/include/ext/pb_ds/detail/resize_policy cc_hash_max_collision_check_resize_tri hash_standard_resize_policy_imp.hpp hash_exponential_size_policy_imp.hpp sample_resize_policy.hpp hash_load_check_resize_trigger_imp.hpp sample_resize_trigger.hpp hash_load_check_resize_trigger_size_ba sample_size_policy.hpp hash_prime_size_policy_imp.hpp ---------- Can somebody update the platform-specific notes please: http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html ?
Yes, mid-air collision - I realised the problem as soon as I looked at my own bug report and looked at the directory again. Still, the POSIX tar vs GNU tar issue could be spelt out a bit :-(. (spent a few days on this...)

It is spelled out on http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html :). From that link: GNU tar version 1.14 (or later) Necessary (only on some platforms) to untar the source code. Many systems' tar programs will also work, only try GNU tar if you have problems. -- Pinski

That's so not obvious :-( ("many system's tar will work") - particularly since I had built gcc (3.4.x) on the same machine before. I have taken the trouble to install binutils, mpfr, gmp (because gcc 4.x needs those)... and even the GNU bash/GNU make requirement were easy, since ./configure && make fails very early - but the long path is not obvious, since it fails very late - and possibly only in the stdc++ and java stuff - gcc and gfortran are not affected. Can I suggest a line be added to http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html, saying HP/DEC tar does not work?
