1)  Configuring in the source directory ("./configure") is slightly buggy in
3.0, I believe.  It is not recommend and doesn't get much testing.  Please
see the installation instructions at http://gcc.gnu.org/ for more detailed
steps in how to configure and bootstrap in a seperate build directory.

2)  I seem to recall tricky and weird things happening with --prefix=/usr.
Have you tried specifying a non-system directory as the prefix?  Basically,
anything other than /usr?
