Hi,
	I obtained a copy of gcc2.5.4 from one of the ftp sites and
started building gcc on a sparc machine.  Every thing goes fine till 
and up to stage2 of the build. Finally when I do am make install .... 
Everything comes to grinding halt when the include files are being 
transfered to gcc-lib/include/sparc. 

	The error message  I got was cannot change mode for assert.h. This
file is owned by me and when this file gets copied on to the right place the
owner is root. Can anybody give some insight into this problem. Also, should 
I be root even if I do not want to install gcc in /usr/local.

Thanks in advance

Chetan
