Yes, --enable-bootstrap is the default with 4.2.x so you only need to type 'make' or 'gmake' to bootstrap the compiler. As Andrew said, there is some mystery here: if the compiler cannot find /usr/local/gnu/bin/ld, it should never have been able to bootstrap itself. Could you verify that you have 3 compilers in the build directory, one for each stage of the 3-stage bootstrap? If they are there, could you try to reproduce the problem with them (instead of with the installed compiler)? -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33598
