Possible GCC Bug, or I'm missing something major.

Hi there,

I'm attempting to build gcc-2.95 (language C, and C++) using
egcs-2.91.66.  I can do ./configure, of course, and I do my make
bootstrap, and I get tons of errors, but not the first time compiling the
compiler.  I get the error after the point at which it begins to run 
gcc-2.95.2/gcc-2.95.2/gcc/xgcc.  I've attempted following your directions
to the letter and using a seperate build directory, I've attempted
building in the same directory, it all yields the same failure, seen
below:

indstream.cc: In method `struct streampos indirectbuf::seekoff(long long
int, ios::seek_dir, int = 3)':
indstream.cc:82: `struct streampos' used where a `int' was expected
indstream.cc:85: `struct streampos' used where a `int' was expected
indstream.cc:87: `struct streampos' used where a `int' was expected
indstream.cc:89: conversion from `int' to non-scalar type `streampos'
requested
indstream.cc: In method `struct streampos
indirectbuf::seekpos(_G_fpos64_t, int
= 3)':
indstream.cc:99: `struct streampos' used where a `int' was expected
indstream.cc:102: `struct streampos' used where a `int' was expected
indstream.cc:104: `struct streampos' used where a `int' was expected
indstream.cc:106: conversion from `int' to non-scalar type `streampos'
requestedmake[2]: *** [indstream.o] Error 1

`/home/fd0man/simpleLinux-CD/mnt/tmp/sources/gcc-2.95.2/gcc-2.95.2/i586-pc-linux-gnu/libio'
make[1]: *** [all-target-libio] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/home/fd0man/simpleLinux-CD/mnt/tmp/sources/gcc-2.95.2/gcc-2.95.2'

Attached is a gzip'd log of the entire ./configure and make process.  If
you can help me at all and give me any type of reply, I would greatly
appreciate it.  I've been attempting this for three days and I can't think
of anyone else that I can possibly ask, and I really would like to get
this thing compiled (I'm attempting to build my own Linux system from the
ground up, and this is the *ONLY* package that I'm having trouble with =(.

	Thank you very much,
	Michael B. Trausch
