On my system (though I doubt it's system specific) some very strange things are
installed when a program-prefix and program-suffix are used. Namely you get
${prefix}${prefix}${program}${suffix} for programs like c++ and g++
System: Solaris 10 Generic_118833-17
Configuration: ../gcc-4.1.1/configure \
--prefix=/pkgs/gcc/gcc-4.1.1 \
--disable-shared \
--with-gnu-as \
--with-gnu-ld \
--enable-__cxa_atexit \
--enable-checking=yes \
--enable-languages=c,c++,objc \
--program-prefix=sparc-sun-solaris2.10- \
--program-suffix=-4.1.1
Some example make output of this in action:
rm -f /pkgs/gcc/gcc-4.1.1/bin/sparc-sun-solaris2.10-gcc-tmp; \
( cd /pkgs/gcc/gcc-4.1.1/bin && \
ln sparc-sun-solaris2.10-gcc-4.1.1 sparc-sun-solaris2.10-gcc-tmp &&
\
mv -f sparc-sun-solaris2.10-gcc-tmp
sparc-sun-solaris2.10-sparc-sun-solaris2.10-gcc-4.1.1 ); \
fi
ln: cannot access sparc-sun-solaris2.10-gcc-4.1.1
