I find your message confusing.  If you rm -rf objdir/* as you indicate 
at the top of your email, then, there should be no problem, and you 
indicate that you can solve the problem by doing that at the end of 
your message.

Anyway, besides what Ian said, you might try installing one of these 
compilers as gcc and using it to compile the compiler.  That reduces 
tension between the stage1 and later stages, not that it should be 
necessary, but I often find it useful.

I always rebuild in the same object directory, and never remove it.  At 
most, rm -rf <target>/* and/or rm Makefile and config.cache files and 
reconfigure.  Usually this works ok.

It is also possible that other targets like cleanstrap,restrap or 
unstage might be useful, but, since you didn't give enough information, 
I can't tell.
