thousands of failure?
No, this means that something's broken in your build, and the compiler
is probably not usable. Nevertheless, you may want to use at least gcc
4.1.1, as the gfortran that comes with gcc 4.0.x isn't really usable,
even if the testsuite passes cleanly.
Regardless of version, testsuite will show unsatisfactory results if
your build did not complete, for example if you didn't build
libgfortran. But you have been ignoring plenty of questions on why you
are trying to build this broken version, so I expect today's replies to
be ignored as well.
