Directory "already exists and is not a directory" error

I'm attempting to get the latest gcc trunk on OSX/Intel Mac.  I'm totally new to svn, but have installed and configured it successfully...I think. 

I get the following when trying to retrieve the trunk:

$ svn checkout svn://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/trunk gcc
subversion/libsvn_client/checkout.c:175: (apr_err=155018)
svn: 'gcc' already exists and is not a directory

I'm not exactly sure where svn is trying to place the files or how to fix the error I'm getting.  Anyone have experience with this or pointers?

Thank you in advance.
Mike

You have a file named gcc in your current working directory.
