RE: Unrecognized option '-G'

[David Korn <dkorn at pixelpower dot com>]

  Please, show the exact commands you are using to both configure and
build binutils and gcc.  This seems like a problem in the configure
stage.  It could be that since you configured and started the build before
you had installed the binutils, configure got confused, so it might be
that you need to wipe out your gcc build directory and start again.
