Problems building gcc-4.2.1 on Solaris 8

[powell_dan@emc.com]

I've been trying to build GCC 4.2.1 on Solaris 8 for several weeks.  The
initial guidance I got from Garey Mills, Kai Ruottu, and Dennis Clarke
was to pay attention to the "Prerequisites".

So my configuration is:
GNU make 3.81
Binutils 2.19
Gawk 3.1.5
Gmp 4.3.1
Mpfr 2.3.2

I've used Dennis Clarke's test results as a guideline
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2007-08/msg00318.html

I've built with GCC 3.3.2 as well as SunStudio 9.
I've built with CONFIG_SHELL set to /bin/bash, /bin/ksh, and bash4.0.

My current configure line is:

/emc/ctadm/drp/gcc/gcc-4.2.1/configure \
        --prefix=/disks/rmdev/tools/solaris8 \
        --with-local-prefix=/disks/rmdev/tools/solaris8 \
        --with-build-sysroot=/disks/rmdev/tools/sysroots/solaris8 \
        --enable-threads \
        --enable-languages=c,c++ \
        --disable-nls \
        --without-gnu-ld \
        --with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld \
        --without-gnu-as \
        --with-as=/usr/ccs/bin/as \
        --enable-shared \
        --enable-bootstrap \
        --with-gmp=/disks/rmdev/tools/solaris8  \
        --with-mpfr=/disks/rmdev/tools/solaris8

I have saved several build directories "objdirX" with a full log of the
configuration/make where each log file is > 2MB.  I have been trying
different combinations of compilers, config shells, etc.

The build of GCC stop with a failure to build the libstdc++-v3 directory
in stage3.
The most common errors I see are:
