Does anyone know what is wrong here?

IMHO, the options --build=i386-pc-linux and --target=i386-lfs-linux-gnu
are confusing your gcc; gcc might treat these triggering a cross build
and, or compilation.
Does your build system has symlinks i386-lfs-linux-gnu --> i386-pc-linux
in $PREFIX/include and $PREFIX/lib? If not, try creating these manually.
And the following:
$PREFIX/usr/bin/i386-lfs-linux-gnu-cpp -> cpp-4.1
$PREFIX/usr/bin/i386-lfs-linux-gnu-cpp-4.1 -> cpp-4.1
$PREFIX/usr/bin/i386-lfs-linux-gnu-g++ -> g++-4.1
$PREFIX/usr/bin/i386-lfs-linux-gnu-g++-4.1 -> g++-4.1
$PREFIX/usr/bin/i386-lfs-linux-gnu-gcc -> gcc-4.1
$PREFIX/usr/bin/i386-lfs-linux-gnu-gcc-4.1 -> gcc-4.1
Hope that helps,

Do you have access to the compiler as the user you're using to run
configure and make?

I am using the Linux From Scratch live CD.
GNU assembler version 2.17 (i486-pc-linux-gnu) using BFD version 2.17
cat testasm.c
int main(void)
{
asm("cpuid"); /* Invalid on the i386 */
}
gcc -march=i386 -Wa,-march=i386 testasm.c
as: unrecognized option `-march=i386'
I think this means that I am going to have to do a double build. I am
going to have to build to get GNU assembler version 2.19. Then I am
going to have to build again using the new version to apply the switch.
(Building Linux from scratch, from a scratch built Linux from scratch).
I wonder how long it will take for the GNU assembler 2.19 to make it
onto the LFS cdrom?
