How odd.
It seems that the file config/netware.h is local to Red Hat. It says:
/* This file is CYGNUS LOCAL. */
/* netware.h -- operating system specific defines to be used when
targeting GCC for some generic NetWare 4 system.

The only other netware target is i386, and I don't believe the Red Hat
i386/netware.h will build, as it has:
#include "i386/sysv4gdb.h" /* Build on the base i386 SVR4 configuration */
#include "netware.h" /* Then add netware-specific goo. */
and there doesn't seem to be an i386/sysv4gdb.h. I can fix that easily.
After looking at the files, I think probably the best thing to do is
move the cygnus-local stuff out to the public tree, where perhaps some
day someone will fix them, and nuke the powerpc stuff, since it can't
even be configured.
Any objections?
