bootstrap of 4.6.2 on Solaris i386, gone in 60 seconds

[Dennis Clarke <dclarke at blastwave dot org>]

Well, dear GCC users I am now seeing behavior that falls in the arean of
the bizarre. No sense in talking much about it but here is the error
message :

/opt/bw/src/GCC/gcc_4.6.2/gcc-4.6.2/intl/configure: line 7353: .:
./conf4075subs.sh: file is too large
configure: error: could not make ./config.status


Since this happens within 60 seconds I may as well post the whole
configure report as well as the actual results and then see if anyone can
spot the issue here :

First a bit of info.

titan$ which gstrip
/opt/bw/bin/gstrip
titan$ gstrip --version

/opt/bw/bin/gcc
titan$ gcc --version

That gcc compiler has some pretty good testsuite results :

 http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2011-07/msg00139.html

However, configure looks okay but the build fails, fast.

I can not figure out why I would be seeing a error like that.

baffled on Solaris , Dennis
