GCC : help about --program-suffix option

[bmj2001]

I noticed. Don't use it.
I don't know how its supposed to work.
I thought I would get something like

gcc-alpha

with it.
I was wrong.
I got the gcc.exe and related tools.
When you finally build it, just use the standard directory /usr/local
as this will not over write your original GCC.
Now, if using linux, go to your home directory, (IE not adminstrator) and
build glibc.
Get the latest glibc from your favorite sources.

i downloaded gcc-3.0.tar.gz

It seems that the '--program-suffix' option not function or i have not
understand how it works.
Like i understand, it's could create file with suffix like gcc-3.0 (if my
suffix is '-3.0')

Thanks for your help
