I did it because I got a compile error on line 2859 of gcc/enquire.c,
when it was compiled shortly after stmp-int-hdrs was touched.
Line 2859 includes a comment which says "if this fails to compile, define
NO_FILE."

I'm using gnu make 3.76.1 and building in a separate directory below the
toplevel egcs-971207 directory, following exactly the instructions in
INSTALL/CONFIGURE, namely, "mkdir objdir;cd objdir;../configure".
Is the second problem a consequence of what I did for the first
problem?
