not necessary, if he sits in his objdir which is on the same level as 
gcc src dir than it is ok.
Try some simple config first:

In the objdir dir (see below) run this:
/Volumes/src/gcc/gcc-branch/gcc-3.4.1/configure 
--prefix=/Volumes/src/gcc/gcc-branch/testbin --enable-languages=c,c++,java

And then a make bootstrap (or even only a make )

Where gcc-branch (/Volumes/src/gcc/gcc-branch) contains the following dirs:

gcc-3.4.1
objdir (where you build the tree)
testbin (where you install it to test)
