Oh, that's definitely not good.  To quote
<http://gcc.gnu.org/install/configure.html>, "building where objdir is a
subdirectory of srcdir is unsupported."  Start over with a clean tree
and separate build dir.

As long as you update from SVN properly (using contrib/update_gcc so
that timestamps are updated) then the autoconf/automake/libtool on your
system should never run unless you modify an *.am/*.ac/*.m4 source
file.  (And if you do do that, then you have to use the specific
project-blessed versions to regenerate anyway, namely 2.59/1.9.6.)
