Excuse me if I'm just now gotten brain-tired on this, but how about just
warning if the .la files are present, as follows. I've left it 'wordy'
just to try to be clear here; it can of course be boiled-down.
----
echo 'Searching for lib{gmp,mpfr,mpc}.la under /usr/lib* :';
for lib in lib{gmp,mpfr,mpc}.la; do
find /usr/lib* -name $lib -ls ;
done;
echo 'If any are shown above as found, then you should either remove them or
move them aside temporarily - e.g. to /var/tmp - otherwise they may cause
problems for compiling gcc in chapter 5.';
----
The find() '-ls' output is so the user can see orig perms/ownerships/&c,
in case they somehow want to restore later.
Also, I'd be wary of just recommending outright deletion, as it's the
user's host-system.
rgds,
