Exactly - The .defconfig was quite screwed up :/

What Linux distribution and what version of gcc/cpp are you using?

I'm using:
% gcc -v                                                     ~
Using built-in specs.

Configured with: ../src/configure -v --enable-languages=c,c++,fortran,objc,obj-c++,treelang --prefix=/usr --enable-shared --with-system-zlib --libexecdir=/usr/lib --without-included-gettext --enable-threads=posix --enable-nls --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/4.1.3 --program-suffix=-4.1 --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-clocale=gnu --enable-libstdcxx-debug --enable-mpfr --enable-checking=release x86_64-linux-gnu

It's afaik a dependency of gcc.

Don't worry, this is OK. (Ulf did this, and indeed - you could argue
