GMP failure on Mac OS X 10.5

I installed gcc 4.2.2 via ../gcc/configure; make; make install and
then tried to install GMP 4.2.2 using this new compiler via ./
configure; make; make check
This results in the message:
make check-TESTS
/bin/sh: line 1: 28320 Segmentation fault ${dir}$tst

==================================
2 of 9 tests failed
Please report to gmp-bugs at swox.com
==================================
Note that I get the following errors at the end of the build:
ranlib: file: .libs/libgmp.a(mp_clz_tab.o) has no symbols
ranlib: file: .libs/libgmp.a(obprintf.o) has no symbols
ranlib: file: .libs/libgmp.a(obvprintf.o) has no symbols
ranlib: file: .libs/libgmp.a(obprntffuns.o) has no symbols
ranlib: file: .libs/libgmp.a(repl-vsnprintf.o) has no symbols

ranlib: file: .libs/libgmp.a(repl-vsnprintf.o) has no symbols
rm -fr .libs/libgmp.lax
creating libgmp.la
Also note that I have GMP version 4.1.4 installed from a previous
installation of gcc.
Additionally, the ./configure script set -march=k8, even though the
appropriate value would be -march=nocona. Did not change the test
failure of course, but not ideal on this platform?
Building with Apple's supplied gcc [gcc version 4.0.1 (Apple Inc.
build 5465)], still gives the ranlib messages above, but the checks
all pass.
Probably a known issue, but I thought I'd report them just in case.
Thanks,
Matt
