I don't know what's going wrong, it could be anything. Trace it down to the exact command that's causing the error and figure out how to fix it. Then either edit the header file causing the error or the makefile.
and are you sure you don't want to 'make bootstrap'?
Additionally, the LFS book recommends a different directory structure than you're using to build the toolchain... perhaps investigate the early chapters of the LFS book again, where it instructs you on how to set things up..
When I gave make bootstrap, though it compiled properly, when I tried to install it using
make install
it asked for root permission. Wehn I issued same command as root, though it seems to install,when I look into bin dir(it is in my toolchain dir)I find -gcc.
Moreover, I fear that gcc version of the host might be corrupted.
What does that - imply in bin/-gcc ?
What to do for this ?
I'm following LFS-6.1.1
In LFS I have Binutils-2.15.94.0.2.2
Then I try to build GCC-3.4.3 as described in the book, but get the following error:

This is really stupid, because I don't understand why does it look in ../../gcc
I'm building outside sources, I also have tried to build within gcc-3.4.3/BUILD dir (created by myself), but there was the same error.
Use binutils 2.16.1 instead. the 2.15.94.0.2.2 one causes a lot of problems according to my experiences.
For you problem, I suggest to start again. I had this problem before and after I repeat , the problem is not there anymore. I must mistype something in my first time.
I've tried binutils-2.6.1, but still get the same error!
I even tried just to do "make" instead of "make bootstrap", but the same error occurs!
What to do?
