[Bug bootstrap/15379] 'make install' fails


------- Additional Comments From cross+gcc at distal dot com  2004-05-12 05:54 -------
I object to this error being considered invalid.  I don't even know that using
ksh instead of Solaris' sh will fix it.  The problem here is that the top-level
makefile is passing an invalid INSTALL (and/or INSTALL_SCRIPT) to the child
Makefile's.  This is bogus.
Yes, suggesting that we use a complete path to the srcdir when calling configure
*will* work around the problem.  But that's much like saying "Oh, you stepped on
a nail I left in the hall?  Well, if you'd used the other hall it wouldnt've
happened."  It's true, but it doesn't mean that using the other hall is the only
correct solution.  It's just a way to avoid the problem.
I think this bug should be fixed.
Please reopen.
(FYI, I'm seeing this on Solaris 10_b54)
