Ok, that's what I'll do then. I am fine if it is expected behaviour, but in that case it would be best to remove the combined tree suggestion from official documentation: https://gcc.gnu.org/install/download.html Would it work if I checked out the appropriate tags from SVN or is something being modified at the time of release that prevents using the combined tree approach?
