I checked http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html Under "Tools/packages necessary for modifying GCC" it has autogen version 5.5.4 (or later) My fault, but... I'm just testing my bootstrap and am not intending to modify gcc, so I didn't pay attention to this section. Especially since the boostrap of gcc and g++ seemed to go OK this time. I now see that many of the other packages listed are also prerequsites for testing gcc and not only prerequisties for modifying gcc. Maybe the heading should say: "Tools/packages necessary for testing or modifying GCC" to save newbies like me from hours and hours of pain and frustration?
