I would guess this coming somehow from configuring in the source
directory. The 'genmodes'
executable is produced for the BUILD system so the 'as' required here
would be the native one.
The './as' script is somehow broken.
What seems also to be missing is the prerequisite :
"In order to build GCC, the C standard library and headers must be
present for all target variants
for which target libraries will be built (and not only the variant of
the host C++ compiler)."
https://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html
When there is no "--with-sysroot=<something>" to point to the required
'ia64-hp-openvms'
target libraries and headers (the assumption nowadays being a separate
$sysroot for the target
stuff), this mistake seems obvious. The "prerequisites" talks about
producing a native GCC but
just the same prerequisite is true for a cross GCC. People may have
installed only the 64-bit libs
and headers but the GCC build tries to build also 32-bit stuff and needs
32-bit libs and headers
in this task.
The same "--with-sysroot=<something>" is required in the binutils
configure to tell the target
linker where the target libraries are.
