gcc 2.95.2


Hello everyone,

I have one question. I am running RedHat 6.1 and decided to
update gcc. I downloaded gcc-2.95.2 source. 

I Then followed the install instructions to install a native
compiler. From the top level directory of the tarball I did:

mkdir objdir
cd objdir
./configure --prefix=/usr
make bootstrap

All that was fine and well. I then removed the egcs rpms from my
RH install. There were 3 of them.

I then did:
make install

Everything installed without a hitch. What I do notice now is
that when I run the configure script for any app, it tells me:

checking host system type... configure: error: can not guess
host type; you must specify one

I have never had this problem. How can I fix it to where
config.guess determines my host type again?

P.S - I am not on the list, so please forward to
