Nail nearly on the head Paul. This is a reasonably default install of  
Centos on x86_64 which installed 32bit and 64bit glibc versions, but  
for some reason only installed the 64bit version of glibc-devel . A  
quick touch of up2date to install the missing 32 bit glibc-devel and  
voila - gcc 4 compiled like a charm.
