build of gcc

[P.A. Smith]

I am trying a build of gcc-2.95.2 on an athlon thunderbird system with
Redhat 7.0 on. I have simply unpacked the source, run configure and then
make bootstrap. It gets so far and then starts giving me errors

Is this a glibc6 problem?

Just an incompatibility between recent versions of glibc and GCC
2.95.2.  There are patches that fix GCC 2.95.2.  I've (re)posted one
myself in one of the GCC mailing lists in the last few weeks.  Please
search the archives and you'll find it.

I got the patch from
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2000-08/msg00869.html
and it seems to have been installed fine. 
Now I get

That's not the right one.  It was an incomplete and unsuccessful
attempt to fix the problem.  Look for messages posted by myself in the
last two months and you'll find it.  It was a reply to someone who had
the same problem you had.
