I found a workaround for this: After configuring with

../configure CC=gcc-4.3

this compiles fine on both of these machines.  Only when invoking the
compiler with "gcc" do I get this error message; and that's despite
that fact that gcc is just a symbolic link to gcc-4.3.  Apparently the
name of the command I used is used in the path lookup.  Strange.

I cannot currently test on the Alpha box.
