Hello

I cannot build gcc-3.0.3 when configuring with --prefix=/usr
Default succeeds.

My system:

cat /etc/issue

Afterwards another problem arose (after I built gcc with default config):
Could not build xemacs 21.1.14, configure with defaults produced:
(I reported this to xemacs team)

Re: c++/5394: gcc-3.0.3 not build with --prefix=/usr, xemacs configure

[pme]

Synopsis: gcc-3.0.3 not build with --prefix=/usr, xemacs configure

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: pme
State-Changed-When: Fri Apr 19 13:34:35 2002
State-Changed-Why:
    1)  The GCC installation instructions strongly recommend
    that you not configure/build in the source directory.
    
    2)  The same instructions also strongly recommend that you
    not configure with --prefix=/usr unless you are a system
    vendor and know what you're doing.
    
    3)  The xemacs problem is not our fault.  :-)
    
    
    Problems with in-source builds have been fixed since 3.0.3.
    Please download a later version of GCC and try building it.
    Thanks.
