OK, now I need help.  I just did the following things on a Linux system
(configuration i686-pc-linux-gnu; it's an RH 7.2 installation, with 
their
gcc  2.96-112.7.2 installed as the system compiler.)

  - cd gcc34     # this is mainline; I verified there are no sticky tags
  - cvs update
  - cd ..
  - mkdir obj34
  - cd obj34
  - ../gcc34/configure --prefix=/home/austern/root
  - make
  - make install

The compiler bootstrapped and installed without error.  What did you
do differently? At what point in the process did you see a failure?

I'm entirely willing to believe that I goofed and that something breaks
under some specific circumstances, but I don't yet know what those
circumstances are.
