bootstrap/7589: libgcc.map file is empty; ld dies

[boyland@cs.uwm.edu]

On Solaris 2.8 while trying to build gcc-3.2.1,
I tried using --with-gnu-as with-as=<binutils> version and the same
for ld but invarianbly got the 
	...ld:libgcc/./libgcc.map:1: parse error in VERSION script
(I was using binutils 2.13.2).
I was only able to get gcc to build with the Sun /usr/ccs/bin/{as,ld}
binaries.  To my untrained eye, the .map file lookd exactly the same
when building with Sun's as,ld. perhaps the code that's creating it uses
Sun's syntax even when --with-gnu-as/ld.  In any case, the SFW people
use /usr/ccs/bin/{as,ld} to build gcc.

BTW: I also have other problems trying to build gcc-3.2.1 on Solaris
2.8:
mostly with libstdc++-v3 and libgcc_eh.
