That's not what the book said to do.

1. Remove the three cp commands.
2. Remove the j, z, and J from the tar commands.  You only need those when
creating the tar files.


Regarding point 1:

'GCC now requires the GMP, MPFR and MPC packages. As these packages may not
be included in your host distribution, they will be built with GCC. Unpack
each package into the GCC source directory and rename the resulting
directories so the GCC build procedures will automatically use them.'

What part of 'Unpack each package into the GCC source directory' does the cp commands accomplish?
