I'm also experiencing the same problems under SunOS 4.1.3 on a SparcStation 1.
I have to maintain my original GCC 1.37 environment so I wish to build/test/
and release ( to a a select few at the start) GCC 2.3.2 and libg++2.3. I have
attempted to build under:

/usr/local/tmp

I have:

bin                     bison-1.19              lib                     
binutils-2.0            gcc-2.3.2               libg++-2.3
binutils-2.0.tar.Z      include                 libg++-2.3.tar.Z
binutils-2.0_OU         info                    man


After having run configure sun4 -prefix=/usr/local/tmp and make I see
error messages as reported by the other poster.

Do I need Gas, nm, ld and the binutils ? What sort of directory
structure should I use to compile libg++2.3. How can I get the
libg++2.3 gen use my new GCC 2.3.2 compiler ( to be found below 
/usr/local/tmp/bin ). Lots of questions, not a lot of answers...

If anyone reports a fix to this problem, let me know, thanks.

Steve.
