Thanks for finding that.  I had created a new bug
(http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=37000), and I've now
marked it a duplicate.

It was recommended that I set CONFIG_SHELL to /bin/ksh, as recommended
in the build notes for Solaris, and that did the trick for me:

  http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html#x-x-solaris2

I should have noticed that before.

I did.  Here's how i called configure:

CC="cc -xarch=v9 -xildoff" ../gcc-4.2.4/configure \
          --prefix=/data/software/devtools/gcc-4.3.1-sparc-sun-solaris2.9 \
          --enable-langues=c,c++,objc \
          --with-gmp=/data/software/devtools/gmp-4.2.1-sparc-sun-solaris2.9 \
          --with-mpfr=/data/software/devtools/mpfr-2.3.0-sparc-sun-solaris2.9

Strangely, though, when I look at config.status, I see this:

#! /bin/sh
# Generated automatically by configure.
# Run this file to recreate the current configuration.
# This directory was configured as follows,
# on host cannes.umd.edu:
#
# ../gcc-4.2.4/configure
--prefix=/data/software/devtools/gcc-4.3.1-sparc-sun-solaris2.9
--enable-langues=c,c++,objc
--with-gmp=/data/software/devtools/gmp-4.2.1-sparc-sun-solaris2.9
--with-mpfr=/data/software/devtools/mpfr-2.3.0-sparc-sun-solaris2.9
--enable-languages=c,c++,java,objc
#

I don't know why the extra --enable-languages switch was appended, and
this time with java included.
