Error when compiling gcc 4.3.1

[Jerry Adair <Jerry dot Adair at sas dot com>]

Hi all-

I am encountering a somewhat puzzling error when attempting to build gcc on an HP Itanium box (ia64-hp-hpux11.31).  I've done a google search to see what I could find WRT others having encountered this error too, but nothing resulted, at least that was/is directly applicable.  Mysteriously, the error is telling me that there is no rule to make all (and I didn't find a Makefile in the gcc subdirectory) in my build tree!  I ran the following configure command:

../gcc-4.3.1/configure --prefix /u/jeadai/GCC --with-gmp=/u/jeadai/GCC --with-mpfr=/u/jeadai/GCC

Where gcc-4.3.1 is where the source is located and gcc-4.3.1-BuildTree being where I am actually doing the compile.  I then issued the make bootstrap command, which built some of gcc, but when execution flowed into the gcc subdirectory, I got the strange error followed by an early termination of the make bootstrap, thus:

....
