Ah, I've found the problem; it's at my end.

My copy of newlib was picking up a different version of config-ml.in (from 
my sourceware tree) because of the way I have newlib symlinked into my gcc 
tree.  This was slightly out of date, so didn't have the latest changes in 
it.  This of course then wrote the bad line into config.cache which libf2c 
was then picking up.

I've updated my newlib and it all builds fine now.  However, I notice that 
there are still a small number of (I think) white space differences 
between gcc's version and that in the sourceware repository.  Any chance 
that these can be reconciled?

Oh for the day when gcc, binutils and newlib are part of a single 
repository.

Anyway, thanks for your help,
Richard.
