Summary
-------

gcc version 2.3.1, copied by ftp from /pub/gnu/gcc-2.3.1.tar.Z
at prep.ai.mit.edu on 17th November 1992 at around 08:00 GMT.

Built on SPARCstation 2 running SunOS 5.0 (Solaris 2.0) in sub-directory
sparc-sun-sunos5.0 using `../configure sparc-sun-sunos5.0'

The installation stage of the build fails because instead of copying
from `cc1' to `/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-sunos5.0/2.3.1/cc1'
it tries copying the latter to `cc1/cc1', and similarly for other
files installed via the Solaris 2 `install' command.

Workaround
----------

Create an executable script called `install' containing

	#! /bin/sh
	cp $2 $3

and have its directory in your PATH before the standard directories
when doing `make install ...'.
