I have installed binutils2.18 now. All seems to have been ok during this 
install. I cleaned up all of the gcc stuff using make clean and make 
distclean. I reran configure using the following options :

./configure --prefix=/users/ackooij/softs/gcc-4.2.1SunOS/ 
--with-gmp=/logiciels/public/gmp-4.1.4 
--with-mpfr=/logiciels/public/mpfr-2.2.0 --with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld 
--enable-languages=c,c++,fortran --disable-libgcj 
--build=sparc-sun-solaris2.8

Changed as before :

*-*-elf* | \ 
*-*-hpux* | \ 
*-*-netware* | \ 
*-*-nto-qnx* | \ 
*-*-rtems* | \

*-wrs-windiss) 
#md_exec_prefix=/usr/ccs/bin 
md_exec_prefix=/users/ackooij/softs/binutils-2.18SunOS/bin
echo "Solaris Modif : /usr/ccs/bin : changed into $md_exec_prefix \n" 
;; 

Makefile : 

echo Comparing stages 2 and 3 ; \ 
cd ${HOST_SUBDIR} ; \ 
cd stage3-gcc; \ 

Now i tried to rebuild using "make" but i got an error message. The 
configure script for "configure-stage1-gcc" did not work correctly :
(So afterwards the whole processus of make just stopped)

What is this new error all about ? It seems to use the right assembler no 
?

Thanks again in advance !
