Yeah, gcc compile time isn't exactly spectacular :-)

See this is what's weird, and symptomatic of a broken
installation. For some reason, your 3.3.2 driver is
running the 3.5 compiler. I'm guessing the 3.3.x
driver is less forgiving about spec file typos,
hence...

>gcc: spec failure: unrecognized spec option '<'

If you go to the prefix where you installed 3.3.x, and
do a find on cc1, what do you get? More importantly,
if you run that cc1, what version does it say it is?
Also, what is you $PATH?

Right.

You can certainly file a bug report, mentioning the
typo in specs, and give the particulars. The other
error your seeing is more likely part of a screwed up
installation (could also be a bug...). 

If you want to find what's causing the bug, you can
try to figure out what makefile rule generates
gcc/specs (in your build directory), and so figuree
out where the original typo comes from. I'll also take
a look this afternoon and see what I can come up
with...

Cheers,
