I just had it happen: $ cd gcc_build $ make distclean $ ls -aCF ./ ../ fixincludes/ stage_final $ ../gcc-5.5.1/configure $ make pdf make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/gcc_build' make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/gcc_build' make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/gcc_build' Configuring in ./fixincludes configure: loading cache ./config.cache configure: error: `CC' has changed since the previous run: configure: former value: `/usr/local/src/gcc_build/./gcc/xgcc -B/usr/local/src/gcc_build/./gcc/ -B/usr/local/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ -B/usr/local/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/lib/ -isystem /usr/local/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/include -isystem /usr/local/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/sys-include ' configure: current value: `gcc-4.5.1' configure: error: in `/usr/local/src/gcc_build/fixincludes': configure: error: changes in the environment can compromise the build configure: error: run `make distclean' and/or `rm ./config.cache' and start over make[1]: *** [configure-fixincludes] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/gcc_build' make: *** [do-pdf] Error 2 So, Ian, a bug report shall I submit?
