Note that CVS mainline includes fixes needed for libc5 (and probably also
libc4) which aren't on the 3.2 branch, so is probably a more appropriate
base to work from on this.

[About building gcc on a libc4.8 system]

I don't know whether gcc is supposed to support these _very very_ old 
systems any more, so I am unsure about how to proceed with this report.

Why don't you submit this patch (or a suitably modified form) to 
gcc-patches?

    Yes.

    This is a rather old bootstrap error. Can you say whether this
    still happens with newer versions of gcc?
