Hmm, sounds like a final resort hack ;-)

This can still be a problem with the compiler, or a broken thread
implementation. Try configuring with --disable-threads (not sure if this
is correct, use configure --help to find out).

Don't compile the Java front-end when you don't need it. I compiled gcc (on
SunOS 4.1.4, IRIX 5.3, IRIX 6.x) with:

  mkdir build
  cd build
  ../gcc-2.95.2/configure --prefix=/opt --exec-prefix=/opt/sun4 \
    --enable-threads --enable-languages='c,c++,objc' \
    --with-gnu-ld=/opt/bin/gld --with-gnu-as=/opt/bin/gas \
    sparc-sun-sunos4.1.4 
  make bootstrap
  make install

Or download a precompiled binary from Sun at http://www.sunfreeware.com/ .
