Use the grep, Luke!

[dank@dual gcc-3.3.2]$ find . -type f | xargs grep 'Configuration.*not supported'
./gcc/config.gcc:       echo "*** Configuration $machine not supported" 1>&2
./gcc/config.gcc:       echo "*** Configuration $machine not supported" 1>&2
./gcc/config.gcc:       echo "*** Configuration $machine not supported" 1>&2
...

Examine gcc/config.gcc for more info.  Is there a patch somewhere
used by amiga folk when they build gcc, perhaps?  Ah, yes:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2003-10/msg00329.html
You might need to look at that and use the same gcc version he's starting with.

The host isn't completely irrelevant...
