You did not say what commands you use to configure and compile gpc.
Let me repeat here what I wrote recently to Ernst-Ludwig Bohnen:

The compiler message suggest that you did not use '--disable-multilib'.
It seems that you did not use 'make bootstrap'.  Basicaly, all reports
about build failure/not working install on on 64-bit systems which do not
use that flags are a noise.

BTW: While using gcc-3.4.4 probably did not cause your problem, gcc-3.4.6
fixes quite a few gcc bugs so it is better to use it instead of 3.4.4
(or 3.4.3).
