I also had the same problems trying to build egcs on PPro ander RedHat 4.2.
The problem is following: gcc from RedHat distribution (2.7.2.1) has ./ in
the path where it searches for specs file - so it takes this file from
gcc subdirectory in egcs when make enter this subdirectory . It seems to me
that gcc 2.7.2.1 couldn't understand correctly some information from this
file (may be due to some information about i686 CPU) and passes incorrect
options to cpp.
