Thanks, I'm currently trying this,

ac_cv_prog_LN_S="no" acx_cv_prog_LN="no" ../gcc/configure \
--with-gmp=c:/msys/1.0/home/bobbybrasko/gcc/gmp/gmp \
--with-mpfr=c:/msys/1.0/home/bobbybrasko/gcc/mpfr/prefixdir \
--with-gcc  --enable-libgomp --host=mingw32 \
..

If this doesn't work, I'll try your solution before we find the real
response. Danny must have got past this somehow ....
