Hi, Yes, those errors are from the configuration step. Here are the steps I took after untarring the source code: 1) Run this inside the source directory: ./contrib/download_prerequisites 2) Run configure from an empty build directory: ../gcc-4.8.1/configure --prefix=/home/mdl/ids103/gcc-4.8.1-install --with-ld=/home/mdl/ids103/binutils-2.24-install/bin --with-as=/home/mdl/ids103/binutils-2.24-install/bin 3) Run make After about 20 minutes, the build fails. Here is the last of the output: rm gcc.pod make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/mdl/ids103/gcc-4.8.1-build/gcc' mkdir -p -- x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/libgcc Checking multilib configuration for libgcc...

Please let me know if I can provide more information. Thank you.
