[Bug bootstrap/16835] New: configure goofs with ./install-sh

["scott dot bailey at eds dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

I'm bootstrapping gcc-3.4.1 on Tru64 5.1B using GNU make. I did not observe 
this problem with gcc-3.3.3, the last version I built on this host.

During configuration, configure chooses ./install-sh as the installation 
command to use. The generated Makefile in the root gcc-3.4.1 directory duely 
contains the line:

INSTALL = ./install-sh -c

Unfortunately, when later attempting to perform the "make install" step, most 
of the installation fails when attempting to find install-sh inside 
subdirectories where it does not exist. :-)

I seem to have worked around the problem by manually editing Makefile to read:

INSTALL = <directory where I unpacked the tarball>/install-sh -c
