Yeap, you were right and Christian too, but I did things too fast, before 
receiving your mails.
I did a big mistake, as I saw on my system that the rpm files were the ones 
for fc6 (I did an upgrade from FC6 to F7). I thought it could have been the 
reasons of the problems I encountered for compiling the kernel. 
I downloaded the gcc.xxxx and libgcc.xxx rpm files for F7, and forced the 
deletion of the ones I had on my system.
Once done, when I tried to run rpm -ivh gcc-xxx and libgcc-xxx, it failed 
because of a file missing :  libgcc_s.so.1
It 's good to know that if you delete the libgcc package, you can't install 
a rpm file, because it seems rpm needs a file we have in that libgcc 
package.
So no way to install the packages because of that file missing.
I decided to copy the files libgcc_s-4.1.2-20070626.so.1 I have on another 
computer to the /lib directory of that computer, and to recreate the 
symlink between that file and libgcc_s.so.1
Once done, I ran "rpm -ivh gcc.xxxx libgcc.xxxx" and it has worked ;-))
Those two files are reinstalled.
Then I received your message and the one from Christian, so I installed the 
gcc-c++ rpm file, and now make xconfig works :-)
Thank you to both of you. Francois
