So this is where your `^M's are coming from!

Don't do that. Instead, just decompress the .tar.gz to a .tar with
Winzip (assuming you don't have gzip on Unix, even though you could
download a pre-compiled version from www.sunfreeware.com), and then
untar the tar-file with `tar -xf gcc-2.8.1.tar' on Unix.
But I'd recommend using a newer version, such as 2.95.2, unless you
really need 2.8.1.

No, it seems that something is missing from the file you downloaded.
Maybe it's incomplete?
