I am trying to install gcc 4.3.0 or 4.3.1 on a 64-bit CentOS 5.0 machine, fully patched, and keep getting:

make[3]: *** [libgfortran.la] error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory /path/to/source/libgfortran make[2]: *** [all] error 2 make[2]: leaving directory /path/to source/libgfortran make[1]: *** [all-target-libgfortran] error 2 make[1]: leaving directory /path/to/source make: *** [all] error 2

Web searching has yielded a myriad of hits, including various bug reports.

Is this a known bug with a workaround, or do I need another package to make it work, or do I need to adjust my configure line to make things happy?

gcc 4.3.x isn't a centos component. centos 5 uses gcc 4.1.2

but, on a build, that first make error line should have been preceeded by some other errors from a compiler or other tool which generated the error that make is reporting.
