[avr-gcc-list] Problems compiling avr-gcc

[Keith Gudger]

I have successfully installed avr-gcc 4.1.1 before, but am having
problems compiling it now on an older redhat (8.2) machine.

I have successfully installed bin-utils 2.17 (configred for AVR)

I ran configure thusly:
../configure --target=avr --prefix=/usr/local/avr4 --with-dwarf2
--enable-languages=c,c++ --disable-libssp --disable-nls

I now get the error below when running make (I've googled this error,
with no success, and not found anything on this list about it,
either.)

Any suggestions are appreciated.  Thanks.
