Gcc head has been failing to bootstrap for me for weeks now. I'm astounded to find this going on, and not finding a match in bugzilla; I don't think I have anything special in my set-up. This is a vanilla Mac G$ running OS X 10.3.5 "Panther". Is nobody else seeing this?
No options to configure except a --prefix.
