Help compiling native gcc-4.7.0 on Solaris/x86

Folks,

I've dug through the archives to see if my question is answered here
but haven't found anything.  I've been scouring Google for the past
few days and am coming to you for help after having exhausted the
resources at my disposal.  Without further ado, here's what I have:

My system:
SunOS archive 5.11 oi_151a i86pc i386 i86pc
isainfo -kv reports a 64bit OS: 64-bit amd64 kernel modules

System compiler:
gcc (GCC) 3.4.3 (csl-sol210-3_4-20050802)

Libraries I'm using to compile gcc-4.7.0:
gmp-5.0.5
mpfr-3.0.1 (mpfr-3.1.0 crashed earlier than where I am)
mpc-0.9
binutils-2.22

I'm attempting to do a full bootstrap compilation so I can get rid of
the system compiler.  I've followed the instructions here:
http://stackoverflow.com/a/6228588 to setup and build gcc using the
libraries mentioned above.

I'm building as per gcc recommendations in a build directory parallel
to the gcc-4.7.0 sources.  My environment has the following variables:

ABI=long

and the configure command I used to kickstart this build is:

../gcc-4.7.0/configure --prefix=/usr/local/gcc --enable-bootstrap
--with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld

I've also tried it out without the "gnu-as" and "gnu-ld" lines but get
the same result which might be telling.

Compiling fails with the error message shown in this paste bin:
http://pastebin.com/t2DAjFQn

As I said I'm at my wit's end at this time.  I thought for sure the
"with-gnu-ld" and "with-gnu-as" would solve this but it hasn't and
removing those bits doesn't change where the build breaks or the error
message.

I can provide any additional information (files, output, etc) as
needed.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
