 I see the same problem, and I believe I reported the same problem with gcc 3.0.  The
 problem seems to have existed ever since Alexandre Oliva's  (aoliva@redhat.com) on
 the 10th of September 2000.
 
 The correct way to fix the problem is to apply your fix to "ltconfig" and then rebuild all 
 the "configure" scripts with "autoconf".

Solaris 7 and solaris 8
>Description:
When generating all the libraries after having done gcc the procedure stops in a configure with the following statements:

*:gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/opt/scratch/GNU.LANG/gcc-3.2.1/sparc-sun-solaris2.7/libobjc'
*:Configuring in sparc-sun-solaris2.7/libffi
*:ChangeLog		..linked
*:ChangeLog.libgcj		..linked
.........
*:stamp-h.in		..linked
*:loading cache ../config.cache
*:checking for Cygwin environment... (cached) no
*:checking for mingw32 environment... (cached) no
*:configure: error: can not find install-sh or install.sh in . ./.. ./../..
*:gmake[1]: *** [configure-target-libffi] Error 1
*:gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/scratch/GNU.LANG/gcc-3.2.1'
*:gmake: *** [bootstrap] Error 2
>How-To-Repeat:
By gennerating gcc 3.2.1 on solaris 7 or 8
>Fix:
Edit the libffi/configure script and change one line, in order to find install-sh much higher in the source tree i.e.

for ac_dir in $srcdir $srcdir/.. $srcdir/../.. $srcdir/../../.. $srcdir/../../../.. ; do

instead of 

for ac_dir in $srcdir $srcdir/.. $srcdir/../..; do
