Yes, it does! I've built gcc from 2.6.3 to 2.7.2 on our 9000/809 (aka K100)
running HP-UX 10.01 (no patches installed) w/out any problems whatsoever with
first binutils from jaguar.cs.utah.edu:/pub/pagnutools and then with 2.6.
gcc-2.7.0 had trouble with libg++-2.7.0a (building shared objects would croak
when compiling a few files in libio and librx, but worked with 2.6.3. And
there was a bug in ANSI string implementation), but other than that it worked 
fine. gcc-2.7.[12] fixes that problem. What exactly is your problem?

This is what I do:

1. build binutils-2.6. NO NEED TO INSTALL yet.
   % gnumake all-gas

2. build and install gcc
   % cd gcc-2.7.2
   % configure --with-gnu-as 
   % gnumake install-dir
   % cp ../binutils-2.6/gas/as.new $prefix/lib/gcc-lib/$TARGET/$VERSION/as

   where prefix is by default /usr/local/lib. TARGET in my case is
   hppa1.1-hp-hpux10.01 and VERSION is 2.7.2. May differ in your case of
   course.

   % (gnumake CC=gcc LANGUAGES=c && gnumake stage1 && \
     gnumake CC="stage1/xgcc -Bstage1/" CFLAGS="-g -O" LDFLAGS=-s) >& \
     make.log
   % gnumake install

   Note that I never bothered to install ANSI C on our 10.01 machine, and
   so I'm using GCC as the bootstrap compiler.

3. build and install libg++-2.7.1
   
   % cd libg++-2.7.1
   % ./configure --enable-shared
   % gnumake CC=gcc install

4. build and install gdb-4.15.1
   
   % cd gdb-4.15.1
   % configure
   % gnumake install

Drop me a line if you have trouble with this.

GCC is even easier than building my own code on multiple platforms :-)
