Error in libstdc++ bootstrapping egcs-20000110 on Solaris 7 x86

[Bernard Michaud <bmichaud at excom dot com>]

Make bootstrap of egcs-20000110 failed on Solaris 2.7 x86 while building 
libstdc++.so.2.10.0; the following configuration was in use:

$ gcc -v
Reading specs from /opt/gcc-2.95.2/lib/gcc-lib/i686-sun-solaris2.7/2.95.2/specs
gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)
$ as --version
GNU assembler 000111
$ flex --version
flex version 2.5.4
$ make --version
GNU Make version 3.78.1, by Richard Stallman and Roland McGrath.
Built for i686-sun-solaris2.7

The egcs-20000110 configuration was the following:

$ env CC=gcc BOOT_CFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=pentiumpro" ../egcs-20000110/configure \
i686-sun-solaris2.7 --enable-shared --enable-haifa --enable-threads \
--prefix=/opt/egcs --without-gnu-ld --srcdir=../egcs-20000110

Following is an extract of the build output:
