probs building 2.95.2 on Redhat 7

[Gary Funck]

I realize that questions re: 2.95.2 are becoming passe`, however, I need
to build 2.95.2 from sources on a Redhat Linux system, and am wondering
if someone here might have seen this problem before, and can offer a
suggestion on how to get past this problem?

I'm running a newly installed Redhat 7, with no modificaitons, and am
trying to build 2.95.2 using the 2.95.2 source tarfile from
prep.ai.mit.edu.  I run configure, and it says:

% cat config.status
#!/bin/sh
# This file was generated automatically by configure.  Do not edit.
# This directory was configured as follows:
./configure --with-gcc-version-trigger=/upc/gcc-2.95.2/gcc/version.c
--host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --norecursion
#  using "mt-frag"

Then, I run `make', it fails here:
  /upc/gcc-2.95.2/gcc/xgcc -B/upc/gcc-2.95.2/gcc/

Looks like some sort of include file problem, building the C++ parts of
libio?

I haven't tried pulling the source RPM off the CDROM to see if they do
something differently, yet.

Any suggsetions on what to try to get past this glitch?
