SuSE 6.2 Linux distribution with Linux kernel v2.4.14.  AMDK2/266 (on a cheap MB), 
>Description:
Trying to bootstrap build GCC according to the instructions at:

www.linuxfromscratch.org

these were given for 2.95.3 release, however nothing appears too exotic and hence adapted for latest stable version.  They are upto and including configure:

$ mkdir ../gcc-build
$ cd ../gcc-build
$ ../gcc-3.0.3/configure --prefix=/usr --enable-languages=c,c++ -disable-nls --disable-shared --enable-threads=posix

Giving just the two (seemingly irrelevent) warnings/errors:

--- ./configure [snippet] ---
*** This configuration is not supported in the following subdirectories:
     target-libf2c target-libffi target-boehm-gc target-zlib target-libjava zlib fastjar target-libobjc
    (Any other directories should still work fine.)

--- ./configure [snippet] ---
configure: warning:
*** Makeinfo is missing or too old.
*** Info documentation will not be built.


Now, simply bootstrap with:

make BOOT_LDFLAGS=-static bootstrap

And dies after some time (about 30 minutes, remembering it is a 266) leaving the following information spewed over my terminal:

Thank you for your time,

>How-To-Repeat:
Unknown cause, GCC-2.95.3 is known to compile on a *similar* configuration to this.  Willing to compile earlier versions upon request, if appropriate.  Completely repeatable from clean extract of GCC3.0.3 tarball.
