The reply was from aoliva@gcc.gnu.org (unset LANG LC_COLLATE), but where do I do that?  I am a real newbie in this stuff.  Please let me know so that I can finally use this version and begin to do my college projects.

 Hi Alison,
 
 This is not a flame :-)
 
 But this is not a GNU bug, and it'd be nice if you'd close 
 this request and/or ask them to close it.  To do that
 send a new message to gcc-bugs@gcc.gnu.org with the subject,
 
       Please close bootstrap/3453
 
 
 The question you ask, how do I set and unset environment
 variables, has nothing to do with gcc, and is best asked
 on a Usenet list like comp.unix.shell.
 
 I realize that gcc doesn't build with your LANG or
 your LC_COLLATE, and that inablility to build may be a 
 bug, but how to change environment variables is not
 a bug report but a general Unix question.
 
 
 The short answer is to type this at your command prompt:
 
   $ unset LANG
   $ unset LC_COLLATE
 
 An be sure to build gcc in an objdir!
 
 The reason why I've told you all this is because there's
 too many bug reports around here, and there's at least
 a thousand that haven't even been looked at, at all.
 I think some bugs with numbers in the low hundreds aren't
 even fixed yet.
 
 Best,
 Matthew
