I think the problem is simply that you didn't use "make bootstrap".
g77 requires gcc to compile it, so if you're not using gcc to
do the basic compile, "make bootstrap" is necessary to first build
a gcc and then use that gcc to compile g77.
This is documented pretty well, I think, so make sure you're reading
all the stuff in egcs/INSTALL/ (see INDEX, CONFIGURE, BUILD, etc.).
But, it might be worthwhile looking into a way to produce a nicer
diagnostic in this case so you don't have to puzzle over what
went wrong.
