I'm trying to build gcc 4.3.1 on Linux. The configure works. 'make'
dies with the error:
checking for suffix of object files... configure: error: cannot
compute suffix of object files: cannot compile
See `config.log' for more details.
make[2]: *** [configure-stage1-target-libgcc] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/import/dtg-data20/jj155244/tools/gcc-4.3.1'
make[1]: *** [stage1-bubble] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/import/dtg-data20/jj155244/tools/gcc-4.3.1'
make: *** [all] Error 2

As it says, the config.log (in the libgcc subdirectory, not toplevel)
will contain the answer. Most likely you will see an error along the
lines of "unable to find shared library libgmp.so" (or libmpfr.so.)
This happens if you installed them as shared libraries in a non-system
location without informing the dynamic linker of their location, via
LD_LIBRARY_PATH or ld.so.conf.
