Hi, all,
I just tried to build gcc-in-cxx with some older gcc compilers on x86_64
linux. This is Debian testing, with 4.3.3 as the system compiler.
Here's what I've gotten so far:
2.95.3 Doesn't support x86_64
3.0.4 Doesn't support x86_64
3.1.1 Fails to bootstrap
3.2.3 Fails to bootstrap
Both 3.1.1 and 3.2.3 fail to bootstrap with the following error:

I updated the system gmp to 4.2.3, so the C++ fix is present in the
header.
I'm configuring and bootstrapping with the 3.3.6 install at the head of
the path. Maybe building with the CXX and CC explicitly specified would
work better here.
I didn't run the test suite on the 3.3.6 build, so it's possible it
didn't build correctly.
gcc 3.4.6 successfully bootstraps the branch with all default languages.
