Hi,

I am trying to upgrade my version of gcc.  I followed the instructions by
checking out the CVS tree, then running "cvs update"

Next, I made the directory in /usr/local/gcc/ using mkdir. Then I switched
to /usr/local/gcc/ with cd.  Then I ran ran /root/Downloads/gcc/configure

Next, the whole thing was built with "make bootstrap"

Finally, "make install" was typed in.  That's about all the instructions
given by GNU says to do at http://gcc.gnu.org/install/.  The problem is, I
don't think that gcc was updated since I still get 2.9x when I type "what
gcc"  I'm at a loss as to what to do now.

Thank you for the help,

Peter
