Hm. On HP-UX you also need GNU "as". If I remember correctly, there is a
--with-gnu-as option that will allow you to install GNU "as" in /usr/local/bin.
serv01 40: ls -al /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/hppa1.1-hp-hpux10.20/2.95.2/as
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root       sys             17 Sep 28 15:33 
/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/hppa1.1-hp-hpux10.20/2.95.2/as -> /usr/local/bin/as
