Yes. Ancient compiler and binutils combo methinks. I hesitate to recommend
this but you could try omitting the line that says:-

echo "#define HAVE_GAS_HIDDEN 1" >> gcc/auto-host.h &&

If you do this, and it works, then I would recommend rebuilding glibc
after you have compiled and installed the dynamic gcc in Ch 6. This
means you end up building glibc twice :-(
