Here's what caused me to do what I did:
http://gcc.gnu.org/install/finalinstall.html has:
vvvvv
...
We strongly recommend to install into a target directory where there is no
previous version of GCC present.
...
Installation into a temporary staging area or into a chroot jail can be
achieved with the command
make DESTDIR=path-to-rootdir install
where path-to-rootdir is the absolute path of a directory relative to which all
installation paths will be interpreted. Note that the directory specified by
DESTDIR need not exist yet; it will be created if necessary.
^^^^^
I've recompiled (21 hours) using the --prefix parameter and compilation
has completed; I've run the test suite - same result as before: 6 errors.
I'm waiting for a blessing to proceed with just "make install" in Bug
42409 as I read the above strong recommendation with great deference and
really do not want to affect my existing GCC.
