I didn't bypass any warnings.
Here's the path I followed: I clicked on "Installation" on the
left-hand column of http://gcc.gnu.org, then I clicked on "3. Configuration".
This is the main path users might follow.
At no point did it mention what version these instructions were for.

Seems to me the "Installation" link should move underneath the
"Manual" page, http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/
which is very nicely versioned.  What say ye, o webmasters?
