Halt right there.
If you go to the GCC web site, they explicitly say NOT to build (and configure)
in the source directory.

Go to the avr-libc documentation about installing the toolchain:
<http://www.nongnu.org/avr-libc/user-manual/install_tools.html>
and go down to the heading, "GCC for the AVR target". There, it gives you a
build script and notice that configuration happens in the *build* directory,
not in the *source* directory.

So blow away your source directory and start over fresh, following the
instructions in the avr-libc user manual.
