The thing that caught me is that I have built GCC hundreds of times on i686/x86_64 with shared, private dir gmp/mpfr/mpc without a problem, so I went ahead and did the same on this machine; I normally bootstrap on my two main machines the 4.6 trunk every other day.
Of course I am not claiming I didn't do anything wrong, just that it was not obvious from the various docs, including platform notes, that it was safer to use disable-shared or build from the GCC source tree. Anyway, my problem is fixed, and I know a bit more than yesterday; thanks everybody. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45482
