I am glad to hear someone else has my problem.

I decided to compile with my gcc 1.39 rather than using my native cc
compiler for the stage 1 compile.  It worked.

gcc 1.39 compiled xgcc properly, so it properly compiled all three
stages and passed the 'compare' test.  

Having installed gcc 2.3.3, I started reading the manual and found this
installation warning:

   * Some versions of the Pyramid C compiler are reported to be unable
     to compile GNU CC.  You must use an older version of GNU CC for
     bootstrapping.  One indication of this problem is if you get a
     crash when GNU CC compiles the function `muldi3' in file
     `libgcc2.c'.

     You may be able to succeed by getting GNU CC version 1, installing
     it, and using it to compile GNU CC version 2.  The bug in the
     Pyramid C compiler does not seem to affect GNU CC version 1.

Seems it applies to AT&T 386 Unix SVr3.1 also.
