gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/conf/gcc'

The configure script used was:
export CC=/opt/bin/gcc
export LD=/opt/bin/ld
export AS=/opt/bin/as
export MAKE=/opt/bin/make
export AR=/opt/bin/ar
export RANLIB=/opt/bin/ranlib
../gcc-3.2.3/configure --prefix=/opt --with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld --enable-la
nguages="c"

Binutils installed in /opt are version 2.13.2.1

I've also tried using AIX's ld and as (from /usr/bin) with exactly the same
results.

Sincerely,
