can't compile gcc-2.95.1

["philippe.lavoie" <philippe dot lavoie at home dot com>]

I get the following when trying to compile gcc-2.95.1 on Linux 6.0

cat ./sys-types.h ./sys-protos.h > SYSCALLS.c
/home/lavoie/app/gcc-2.95.1/gcc/xgcc -B/home/lavoie/app/gcc-2.95.1/gcc/
-B/usr/local/i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/
-I/usr/local/i686-pc-linux-gnu/include  -DIN_GCC     -g -O2
-I./include     -I. -I. -I./config -I./../include \
  -aux-info SYSCALLS.c.X -S -o tmp-SYSCALLS.s SYSCALLS.c
xgcc: Internal compiler error: program cpp got fatal signal 11
make[1]: *** [SYSCALLS.c.X] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/lavoie/app/gcc-2.95.1/gcc'
make: *** [all-gcc] Error 2

I get the above if I set dcgettext to no otherwise it fails inside the
texinfo directory.

I'll have to admit that I might have made a booboo while updating from
redhat-5.2 to 6.0 but unfortunately the above error message doesn't help
me much to find out what the problem is.

Please let me know if there is a way around it.
