Okay, found it. The end of the error log was 150 lines up the last line
of the config.log file (which a text search revealed that it was on
$build/i686-pc-mingw32/libgcc directory).
For checking how to run the C preprocessor the script tries to
preprocess several source files, each #including a well-known header
file. They all fail because the include search path does not contain the
place where the MinGW header files are installed. This is because it
uses the directory specified in --prefix configure option, but I
assigned that option to an empty directory instead of c:/MinGW (hoping
to install the new gcc somewhere without overwriting the existing one.)
Now I'm trying again using --prefix=c:/mingw. Let's see how it fares.
