Unless I'm mistaken, I think binutils-1.10.1 contains a bug which
makes it incorrectly handle something like __dso_handle.  Better, get
a recent version from CVS tree (if you can).  Then install it so that
it can be found in your PATH. Finally proceed to a normal GCC install
(e.g. without any link) with 

| ./configure
|         --prefix=/homedir/markc/sw/gcc-2.95.2
|         --enable-threads
|         --enable-shared
|         --enable-languages=c++
|         --with-gnu-as
|         --with-gnu-ld

You should get nnot encounter any problem the.
