Problem building g77 configured with gnu as and ld

[Shin, John Y CONTRACTOR WRAIR-Wash DC]

I'm trying to build g77 from gcc 3.4.6 on an Octane 2 SGI machine
running IRIX 6.5.25f with binutils 2.17.  A program I'm trying to
compile requires g77 configured with gnu as and ld, but the pre-built
binaries I have were configured to use the standard MIPS as and ld, so I
have to build my own g77.  I configured and attempted to build g77 from
gcc-3.4.6 as follows:

1. ../gcc-3.4.6/configure --prefix=/usr/local/gcc-3.4.6_INSTALL
--with-gnu-as --with-as=/usr/local/bin/as --with-gnu-ld
--with-ld=/usr/local/bin/ld --with-gmp=/usr/local/lib
--with-mpfr=/usr/local/lib --enable-languages=f77

2. make bootstrap

This gives the following error:

config.status: creating testsuite/Makefile
config.status: creating config.h
config.status: executing default commands
        if [ x"" != x ] && [ ! -d pic ]; then \
          mkdir pic; \
        else true; fi
        touch stamp-picdir
        if [ x"" != x ]; then \
          gcc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -g -02 -I.
-I../../gcc-3.4.6/libiberty/../include  -W -Wall -Wtraditional -pedantic
regex.c -o pic/regex.o; \
        else true; fi
        gcc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -g -02 -I.
-I../../gcc-3.4.6/libiberty/../include  -W -Wall -Wtraditional -pedantic
regex.c -o regex.o
gcc: regex.c: No such file or directory
gcc: no input files
*** Error code 1 (bu21)
*** Error code 1 (bu21)

However, when I check gcc-3.4.6/libiberty, it contains regex.c. What
could be causing this problem?

Much thanks,
