By 'cleaning up' you run the risk of wrecking your one good compiler, which would be a disaster... My advice, leave it alone, install everything separately.

./configure should be doing that by default, actually, it should put everything in /usr/local/...

You may need to use custom options to tell ./configure to search in /usr/local/ for libgmp and such, and need LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/lib" to find the right libraries when you run them, but this will allow you to get a new compiler working without replacing parts of your old one..

MAKEWHATIS.LOCAL(8)					    BSD System Manager's Manual 				       MAKEWHATIS.LOCAL(8)

NAME
makewhatis.local, catman.local -- start makewhatis or catman for local file systems SYNOPSIS
/usr/libexec/makewhatis.local [options] directories ... /usr/libexec/catman.local [options] directories ... DESCRIPTION
The makewhatis.local utility starts makewhatis(1) only for file systems physically mounted on the system where the makewhatis.local is being executed. Running makewhatis by periodic weekly for rw nfs-mounted /usr may kill your NFS server -- all NFS clients start makewhatis at the same time! So use this wrapper for cron(8) instead of calling makewhatis directly. The catman.local utility is using for same purposes as makewhatis.local but for catman(1). FILES
/etc/periodic/weekly/320.whatis run makewhatis.local every week /etc/periodic/weekly/330.catman run catman.local every week SEE ALSO
catman(1), find(1), makewhatis(1), cron(8), periodic(8) HISTORY
The makewhatis.local utility appeared in FreeBSD 2.2. BSD
April 26, 1996 BSD
