Actually, I want you to finish gcc-pass2, except don't delete the
source/build dirs right away. Basically, I want you to run the test I
mentioned before in addition to the sanity check in the Caution box.
If you try to run the check before `make install', you'll still be
testing the gcc from pass1.

Your comment aboves raises a question. As a sanity check, from 5.1- Important
Note (2) : "
After installing each package, delete its source and build
directories, unless specifically instructed otherwise. Deleting the
sources prevents mis-configuration when the same package is
reinstalled later." To make sure that I AM sane (sometimes
debatable), after pass1 of both binutils & gcc, the source & build directories
are to be deleted BEFORE starting the second pass, correct? (Nothing is stated
to retain them for the future build passes...)
But for our testing purposes, and since we are stopping at the end of
gcc-pass2, the build & sources dirs of gcc are to remain intact after the
second pass, but not the first, correct?
The preceding post was my typo - "skill (kill) the 'make -k check'" is the one
performed in pass2 after 'make' in 5.11 (ie. make && make -k check && make
install).
