make bind-9.7.4-P1 fails when --prefix and --exec-prefix switches are used

[Red Cricket]

That's it! THANK YOU!

my /usr/bin/gcc was this ...

#!/bin/sh

if [ -n "$GCC10G" ]; then
        # Use the standard gcc
        exec /usr/bin/gcc323 $@
elif id | grep -q gcc296; then
        #Use the compat gcc
        exec /usr/bin/gcc296 $@
elif [ -n "$GCC296" ]; then
        # Use the compat gcc
        exec /usr/bin/gcc296 $@
else
        # Use the standard gcc
        exec /usr/bin/gcc323 $@
fi

.. when I changed it to this ...

#!/bin/sh

if [ -n "$GCC10G" ]; then
        # Use the standard gcc
        exec /usr/bin/gcc323 $@
elif id | grep -q gcc296; then
        #Use the compat gcc
        exec /usr/bin/gcc296 $@
elif [ -n "$GCC296" ]; then
        # Use the compat gcc
        exec /usr/bin/gcc296 $@
else
        # Use the standard gcc
        #exec /usr/bin/gcc323 $@
        exec /usr/bin/gcc323 "$@"
fi

... the make work fine now.
