["dju" <dju at djuland dot net>]

platform : microsoft windowsXP(32) sp2 intel core duo 

i managed to build gcc-4.2.3 using MinGW-5.1.3 candidate with gcc 3.4.5
and binutils-2.17.50 in MSYS-1.0.10 
  
../../src/gcc-4.2.3/configure --prefix=/mingw --target=i686-pc-mingw32
--program-prefix="" --with-as=/mingw/bin/as.exe
--with-ld=/mingw/bin/ld.exe --with-gcc --with-gnu-ld --with-gnu-as
--enable-threads --disable-nls
--enable-languages=c,c++,ada,fortran,objc,obj-c++,treelang
--disable-win32-registry --disable-shared --without-x
--enable-interpreter

make CFLAGS="-O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -J3 -m32" CXXFLAGS="-mthreads
-fno-omit-frame-pointer -O2" LDFLAGS=-s

only one change in gcc-4.2.3 source :
 in /work/src/gcc-4.2.3/libada/Makefile.in line 30
 LN_S=@LN_S@ 
 by 
 LN_S=cp

output from  msys console
