gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.3 2.96-113)

I tried to build both gcc 3.1 and 3.2 following standard procedure.
Configured with:
../gcc-3.x/configure --prefix/usr/local2
I obtain the same comparison failure in both cases, here I attach 
a log of the messages after a second "make bootstrap" (the last messages
are the same)

Most likely bad memory as people bootstrap all the time on i386-pc-linux-gnu.  Also note 3.1 is 
an old release.

I found that I was working on an NFS-mounted directory.
So I tried the same compilations on the local disk and 
it succeded. Sorry if it a well-known "feature" but I did not find
any note on this.
