GCC Install Problem


Hi,

I downloaded and configured the GCC files to the T as listed in the
directions.  I reach the point where it says: make bootstrap and all I
get is STOPPED.  Here is the actual error I get when I type make
bootstrap:

Make: line 1246: Syntax error. Stop.

I run the make bootstrap command in the directory in which the files
were installed after running the configure command.  I am assuming this
is where I am suppose to run the make bootstrap command at.

To explain further:  I downloaded the gcc-3.1.1.tar.gz file into the
/tmp directory. I changed to the root account and  I then created a new
directory called /tmp/gcc which was empty and ran the configure command
from this directory.  The files were stored on into the /tmp/gcc
directory.  In this directory, I ran the make bootstrap command.  At
this point, I received the syntax error.  I don't see what I could have
done to cause a syntax error.  Any clues?

Thanks!

Kirk
