So you have been building in the source directory.

Delete it all and start again. Delete the source directories, delete the build directory, unpack the GCC tarball again into an empty directory, then run ./contrib/download_prerequisites again, then create a new empty build directory, then configure. > and my make doesn't seem to want to finish? Because fib_table.h is empty.
