> I have the sources in ~/tmp/gcc, and I build in ~/tmp/gcc/build using > ../configure. Oh, that's definitely not good. To quote <http://gcc.gnu.org/install/configure.html>, "building where objdir is a subdirectory of srcdir is unsupported." Start over with a clean tree and separate build dir. > I am using automake 1.10.2, libtool 2.2.6, autoconf 2.63, make 3.81 and > binutils 2.19 in case any of that matters. As long as you update from SVN properly (using contrib/update_gcc so that timestamps are updated) then the autoconf/automake/libtool on your system should never run unless you modify an *.am/*.ac/*.m4 source file. (And if you do do that, then you have to use the specific project-blessed versions to regenerate anyway, namely 2.59/1.9.6.) -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38438
