Nik!

You're correct, I forgot to use make bootstrap, and I'm
incredibly sorry for that pathetic mistake.  This issue needs
to be closed, as   make bootstrap worked to get me past decl.c.

I now have a different make failure much farther along and will
post to GNATS about that in a minute.

Thanks for that quick response!
