The following is what I did to get a working gcc-avr which I've used 
for a couple weeks now:

use binutils.tar.bz2
from ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/binutils/snapshots/binutils.tar.bz2
bunzip2; tar xf
configure --target=avr --disable-nls --prefix=/home/peter/peter/avr
make
make install

use gcc-20010514.tar.gz
from 
ftp://ftp.yggdrasil.com/mirrors/site/egcs.cygnus.com/pub/egcs/snapshots/2001-05-14/gcc-20010514.tar.gz
tar xfz
configure --target=avr --enable-languages=c --prefix=/home/peter/peter/avr
make

use avr-libc-20010331.tar.gz
from http://www.amelek.gda.pl/avr/libc/avr-libc-20010331.tar.gz
edit Makefile prefix = /home/peter/peter/avr
make
make install

I don't guarantee that they haven't released newer versions or 
whatever, so you might like to check the relevant directories to see 
what is the most current version.  But the above is working fine for 
me (and I'm also using a Mac and MacAVRpa to program it, which must 
make me one of very few Mac users using gcc and AVR!).

Enjoy,
   Peter.
PS: Thanks to everyone involve for their work!
