Do you have a working C compiler already?  You need one to compile
anything, even GCC.  If not, you'll have to go for a pre-compiled GCC
binary, and use it to build your own.  You may have to set the CC
environment variable to the name of this compiler, if it is not `cc',
so that config.guess can figure out the complete system triplet.
hpux10.20 isn't a valid triplet; hppa1.1-hp-hpux10.20 (for example)
is.

I wouldn't recommend your using this package modified for 11.00.  GCC
2.95.2 is supposed to work on HP-UX 10.20 out of the box.  Please grab
the sources from http://gcc.gnu.org and start over, or ask for help
from whoever provided you with these modified sources.
