That's right! A quick hack is this:

diff -u crosstool-0.28-rc37/crosstool.sh.orig crosstool-0.28-rc37/crosstool.sh

But according to http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2004-07/msg00293.html

  "POSIX says that the `action' and `condition' are both required.
   The official way to accomplish what you want is to run `trap - 0'."

So the proper way would be to replace the two "trap 0" with "trap - 0" in configure
of gcc-3.3.x with something like

perl -i -p -e "s,trap 0,trap - 0,g" ${GCC_DIR}/configure
