Have you ever started configure and make within the source tree?
As as consequence of that, if the directory $top_srcdir/host-$host_noncanonical
exists, then that would lead to the above error when later building outside
of the source tree  (replace the variables $top_srcdir and $host_noncanonical
with whatever fits your setup, e.g., ../gcc-4.2.1/host-i686-pc-linux-gnu).

A solution would be to remove that directory, then remove the build tree
and start afresh.
