FWIW: I can reproduce this issue with clang-2.8 under Fedora 14.

My takeaway message of is a bit different: You can't build gcc-4.4.x and 
probably also gcc-4.5.x with "i686-apple-darwin11-llvm-gcc-4.2" :)

My recommendation: File a bug on the toplev* issue into GCC's bugzilla 
and into Apple's bugtracking system (should there be one - I don't know).
