Everybody, Ian's advice helped, but my workstation still expects to find
tools.zip in a subdirectory of /home/gcc-4.4.0. So I'll try rebuilding
gcc-4.4.0, and sending you part of the log.
Sounds weird that there could be any '.zip' files involved in the GCC
build, but in the 'libjava' parts there really is! A Google search for
'tools.zip' (these search system are nice!) quickly gave a link to a
message like :

I found a lot of very surprising stuff in tools.zip; fixed thusly.
This doesn't affect straight Classpath builds, but it does affect gcj.

The 'classpath/tools' directory is in 'libjava' and doing a 'grep' there
gave :

But no 'tools.zip' was found in the sources... The 'Makefile.in'
tells that this file will be tried to be created with '$(ZIP)',
so having the 'zip/unzip' utility programs seems to be one prerequisite
in a GCC build nowadays...
You can either try to build them from sources or download them as
prebuilt packages at Sunfreeware.com :
