Inability to build gcc-3.1 with binutils-2.13 cross toolchain...

["Steven J. Hill" <sjhill at realitydiluted dot com>]

I'm having a interesting error that occurs while I'm building a MIPS
cross toolchain RPM. I'm using binutils-2.13, gcc-3.1 and glibc-2.2.5.
Below is one of the output messages, although I have seen the message
'Error: file number 1 already allocated' also. I was doing a 'make -j4'
when building the first stage gcc, but then changed to plain old 'make'
since I'm building on a dual 2GHz Xeon, U160 SCSI and 2GB RAM system, I
though that the 'make -j4' was perhaps getting ahead of itself. However,
it does not matter how many parallel make jobs I spawn off. Iterestingly 
enough, if I try and build gcc-3.2 with binutils-2.13, there are no
problems. This is just plain weird. Anyone have some insight?

P.S. This is just the first stage GCC compiler being built.
