Hmmm...
Yesterday I downloaded 4.5.0 and used --program-prefix=ppc-elf- 
and it seemed to do what I thought it should do (the build failed
for other reasons, but that was after several ppc-elf-gcc executions
ran successfully). Plus, I used the same option for configure with the
NetSNMP project a few weeks ago and that did what I expected.
I'm not real familiar with "configure" so, am I confused?
