As a general rule, you should not use ./configure.  You should run
configure in a separate, empty, directory.  And, to be clear, you should
run the top-level configure script, not the one in the gcc subdirectory.

Other than that, that approach should work fine.  The fact that you sent
a message here suggests that it didn't work, but you didn't really say.
