Thanks for your bug report. Please have a look at

http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/bugs.html

and the section "Reporting Bugs" in the GCC manual; you've hidden
*way* too much information from us, like what command exactly failed.

I don't know whether gcc can be build on this machine; it is very
unlikely that binaries are available publically - we don't distribute
any binaries, at all.
