I have figured out that alike error message pops up when I try to execute a symlink, but I am not sure if it is the only situation which causes such an error. Anyway, I have made a script which replaces a simlink with the copy of the file it refers to, and converted all symlinks in /bin directory. GCC build directory, however, doesn't contain any symlinks -- executables only. So I still get that error message. Anyway, I tried `make install' and it succeded and I can compile C programs, but stlibc++ haven't compiled. Any suggestions, or should I simply compile an alternative STL, STLPort, for instance?
