I have warned many months ago that the current default configuration
for egcs might cause problems for people on Linux who want to install
egcs as their default compiler. The default Linux configuration in
egcs 1.0.2 was not designed to be used as the default compiler. You
may run into the problem I have warned before.

I have make egcs 1.0.2 linux/x86 binaries avaialable. Please check
out

ftp://tsx-11.mit.edu/pub/linux/packages/GCC

Please do read my release note. If you want to install it, you should
remove ALL your previous egcs 1.0.2 from your system.

BTW, I will also make egcs 1.0.3 linux/x86 binaries when it is released
to public.
