The configure options are actually what I've used for all of my GCC
builds before this, to make sure that it builds properly for my system
rather than crossing my fingers and hoping it ``does the right thing.''
 I also understand that /usr can be a high-risk location, but since
I've got nothing in there that I didn't compile and install myself, I'm
relatively confident that I won't be doing any harm.
