Re: Problems compiling the GCC 4.3.5

[Paul van Hoven <paul dot van dot hoven at googlemail dot com>]

I checked that I exported the path to the libs:

echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/Users/toom/gcc4.3.5/requiredLibs/gmp-5.0.1/lib/:/Users/toom/gcc4.3.5/requiredLibs/mpfr-3.0.0/lib/

and I still get the same error. I've an intel mac with snow leopard 
running on it. I cannot say that much about the earliness of the build 
fail since I don't know how long the compile process takes. I'd say its 
about 1 minute after executing make.
