It turns out that this gcc 4.2 that I got from pware didn't work very 
well.  It also didn't install in the standard place for an AIX box 
(/opt/freeware/).  It installed in /opt/pware and didn't create the 
symlinks in /usr/bin like it should have.  I found 4.2 somewhere else 
that did install correctly and also compiled gawk properly.

Now, the install gets to gcc before it fails.  It seems to do a lot of 
redundant checks and then partly through the beginning compile stages, 
stops with this error:

If I'm running out of space, I don't know where.

I still don't think patching is working.  I don't know why.
