Error when building binutils

[Benson Muite <benson dot muite at ut dot ee>]

Hi,

Am trying to build binutils on cent os 7. My configuration command is:

../binutils-gdb/configure 
--with-isl=$HOME/ProfilingTests2/isl-0.20-install/ 
--target=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu 
--build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu 
--with-gmp=$HOME/ProfilingTests2/gmp-6.1.2-install/ 
--with-mpc=$HOME/ProfilingTests2/mpc-1.1.0-install/ 
--with-mpfr=$HOME/ProfilingTests2/mpfr-4.0.1-install/ 
--prefix=$HOME/ProfilingTests2/binutils-2.31-install/ 
--build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu 
--with-zlib=$HOME/ProfilingTests2/zlib-1.2.11-install/ --disable-werror 
--disable-nls --enable-gold --enable-ld

The build fails with the following output:

../../binutils-gdb/gas/as.c:99:31: error:

Are there any suggestions for how to get the build to work?

Thanks,
