I recommend that you go through the entire document first before following the steps (because some steps were performed wrong and corrected later. Other steps were repeated un-necessarily). The steps are numbered as 1., 2., 3. etc.

34. You can optionally run some tests as specified here: http://gcc.gnu.org/install/test.html
35. Otherwise, in the gccbuild directory, type "su"
36. Log in as root user
37. Type 'make install'
38. The installation procedure will begin. For me, it took two to three minutes.
39. That's it! gcc is installed in your system. You can log out of root with Ctrl+d
40. Type "gcc -v" and you'll see the new version number of gcc
Enjoy!!!

12. downloaded mpfr-2.4.2 from http://www.mpfr.org/
13. logged in as root and extracted the tar.bz2 to /usr/share/doc/
14. entered the mpfr-2.4.2 folder, typed 'configure' and typed 'make'

20. Now my gccbuild folder contains : config.log config.status Makefile serdep.tmp
21. Typed make
22. a lot of "checking" lines later I got this:

23. went to the gcc-4.4.2/mpfr/ directory
24. typed "su" and logged in as root user
25. ran "make distclean"
26. Ctrl+d
27. entered the gccbuild folder
28. typed "make distclean"
29. Deleted the rest of the files in the folder
30. ran ../gcc-4.4.2/configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-threads=posix --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-checking=release --disable-libunwind-exceptions --with-gmp=/usr/share/doc/gmp-4.2.2
31. typed make
32. The build process started at 13:15 hrs
33. Build completed 14:19 hrs with the final lines as:
make[5]: Leaving directory `/home/username/gccbuild/i686-pc-linux-gnu/libgomp'

34. You can optionally run some tests as specified here: http://gcc.gnu.org/install/test.html
35. Otherwise, in the gccbuild directory, type "su"
36. Log in as root user
37. Type 'make install'
38. The installation procedure will begin. For me, it took two to three minutes.
39. That's it! gcc is installed in your system. You can log out of root with Ctrl+d
40. Type "gcc -v" and you'll see the new version number of gcc
Enjoy!!! Using built-in specs.

Configured with: ../gcc-4.4.2/configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-threads=posix --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-checking=release --disable-libunwind-exceptions --with-gmp=/usr/share/doc/gmp-4.2.2
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.4.2 (GCC)
Tried make -k check. It showed "PASS" for many tests and then came to a part where it needed overwriting permissions. So I pressed Ctrl+C, logged in with 'su' and ran "make -k check" again. This time, it gave me:
Collector appears to work
