You should check the archives of this list, someone asked about this
just the other day. 
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-help/2005-07/msg00155.html and
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-help/2005-07/msg00156.html are both relevent.

Sorry but this is still building in a subdirectory of the source
directory, which is not correct.

tar jxvf gcc-x.y.z.tar.bz2  # creates subdirectory gcc-x.y.z/
mkdir build
cd build
../gcc-x.y.z/configure --options
