I believe I'm more or less back to bootstrap-land on all my platforms
now, apart from one problem, which I reported in a similiar form at
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libstdc++/2000-11/msg00192.html.

My failures now all look like

  gmake[5]: Entering directory `/files/pfeifer/OBJ-1115-23:54/i386-unknown-freebsd4.1/libstdc++-v3/src'
  Makefile:277: *** multiple target patterns.  Stop.
  gmake[5]: Leaving directory `/files/pfeifer/OBJ-1115-23:54/i386-unknown-freebsd4.1/libstdc++-v3/src'
  gmake[4]: *** [libstdc++.INC] Error 2

...where the Makefile snippet reads

  Makefile: $(srcdir)/Makefile.in  $(top_builddir)/config.status
        cd $(top_builddir) \
          && CONFIG_FILES=$(subdir)/$@ CONFIG_HEADERS= $(SHELL) ./config.status


My gut tells me this might be related to autoconf, automake and autoheader
not being installed on these systems? (That would also explain why other
maintainers don't seem to see these failures.)

FWIWI, libstdc++-v3/src/Makefile includes
  ACLOCAL = /a/vexpert/files8/test/gcc/gcc/missing aclocal
  AUTOCONF = /a/vexpert/files8/test/gcc/gcc/missing autoconf
  AUTOMAKE = /a/vexpert/files8/test/gcc/gcc/missing automake
  AUTOHEADER = /a/vexpert/files8/test/gcc/gcc/missing autoheader
which seems a bit fishy. (/a/... is the source directory.)
