   I encountered exactly the same problem when installing libgcc on a sparc.
   Could you please post the answers? Thanks!

It's due to a bug in Sun's egrep; the ioctls.h file that's generated
ends up being empty.  Install GNU grep 2.0 (includes grep, fgrep, and
egrep), and make sure that this egrep is in your path before the Sun
egrep.
