use a seperate build dir (gcc_build)

gcc >= 3.0:
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-system-zlib --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --with-slibdir=/lib --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-clocale=gnu
make bootstrap 
make install 
ln -sf ../usr/bin/cpp /lib
ln -sf ../bin/cpp /usr/lib
ln -sf gcc /usr/bin/cc
