Makefile bugs in gcc-3.0


Dear Folks,

    There is a bug in the Makefile in various directories under 
gcc-3.0/i586-pc-linux-gnu which cause errors to occur during the install phase
of a general compile. The mkinstalldirs references are short by one level of
directory offset. For example, the equate will be 
`mkinstalldirs = $(SHELL) $(top_srcdir)/../mkinstalldirs' when it should be 

`mkinstalldirs = $(SHELL) $(top_srcdir)/../../mkinstalldirs'. Some require
more levels of offset, but they all are short by one level when they are in
error.

    I forget how many times I had to go in and edit the Makefiles after the
errors occurred which stopped the install. Some changes are needed to the
offsets in those relevant Makefiles, or possibly the relevant Makefile.in
files. That is up to you.

    Shalom,

    John B. Brown.
