> Or did I miss the point entirely? Right now, having the GMP/MPFR libraries (later refered as GMP) in /home/gmp and typing:
configure --with-gmp=/home/gmp --enable-languages=c,fortran does configure fine but running "make" then fails when it attempts to build libgfortran. This is PR 21547, see the audit trail for more details. The general opinion is that it is normal to have to set your LD_LIBRARY_PATH to run the installed compiler, but using --with-gmp should be enough to build it in any case. This is what the toplevel part of my patch does. Moreover, I think that running the testsuite shouldn't require setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH either, which is what the gcc/ part of the patch is about. FX
