I hesitate to report this because it seems so obvious I must be wrong:
gcc-4.2.0/INSTALL only contains the README file (which says to look in
index.html). In previous tarballs, INSTALL contained the config/build/etc.
instructions as HTML files.
I haven't seen anything that would suggest that it is not intended to be the
case anymore: gcc-4.2.0/README and gcc-4.2.0/INSTALL/README haven't changed in
years...
