The "tail" utility in its newer versions requires 'tail -c +16' instead of the
previous 'tail +16c'.
This older version seems to used from gcc-3.4* through gcc-4.1* Makefile.in. It
affects testing against stage2.
a simple test that shows this is to execute from the gcc-package root the
following:
for i in `find -name 'Makefile*'` ; do grep -H -e 'tail +16' $i ; done
This is pretty petty stuff but cqan save some annoyance.
