Then you can probably help me with the files I want to clean up. :-)
config/x-interix: This is one of only two (!) per-host Makefile fragments
remaining; I'm hoping to get rid of the entire infrastructure for this.
Does 3.x work if you blow this away? If not, what needs to be changed?
config/alpha/xm-alpha-interix.h
config/i386/xm-i386-interix.h
I don't know if you're on Alpha or i386, but is there some way to get
these host-side defs out of fragments and into something more generic?
fixinc/fixinc.interix: This is the weirdest one of all. Although it's
a long file, at the moment *all* it does is "rm -f include/stddef.h",
which seems odd at best and dangerous at worst. Does this file need to
exist? Why is it doing what it's doing, anyway?
