I just uploaded the gcc-snapshot_20020216 build to incoming (without
any extra patches). 

To use this snapshot, you should set the following environment
variables:

        LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/gcc-snapshot/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
        PATH=/usr/lib/gcc-snapshot/bin:$PATH

Unset these variables before building Debian packages destined for an
upload to ftp-master.debian.org.

The snapshot packages doesn't build automatically. I had to restart
the build due to bash problems (the same you saw as well).
