Odd, yes, we would be interested in looking further into this.

Note you're incorrect about haifa being enabled on the sparc in
this release.  It's been enabled by default in the mainline sources
which will become the egcs-1.1 release, but nothing has changed
in this regard in the egcs-1.0.x releases.

What "make" program were you using?  This sounds a lot like you are
not using gnu-make.
