It's just that nobody happened to reply. gcc is a volunteer effort, particularly when it comes to answering questions on the mailing lists. In this case, it's hard to write a useful reply since you didn't provide any informative details. It is true that running the testsuite will normally use a newly built compiler, without requiring it to be installed. However, you didn't provide critical information like precisely what you did, precisely what happened, what you expected to happen instead, what version of the compiler you were building, and what host you were running on. So it's hard to know what to say. Or, in other words, WORKSFORME. Ian
