You are not in the right dir. You are supposed to run configure from the
build directory, not the source dir. It appears you have misread the
instructions in the book - as stated on page 5.1, each package
installation instructions assume that you have already unpacked the
tarball and entered the package source dir. Therefore, the command to
create ../gcc-build (and of course cd ../gcc-build) should be executed
from within the GCC source dir.
