gmake: Nothing to be done for `all'.

But, I found it!

So, I have libio.la, but the linker is looking for libio.a!!!

Yes. I've been using these very scripts on a daily base for months and
even done manual bootstraps. On i686-pc-linux-gnu I believe the "problem"
is me not having installed developer tools (auto*) on that box, but see
my separate report.

Now we have to find out why you didn't get my error. Is your Solaris box 
also sparc-sun-solaris2.6? Do you use Sun as and Sun ld like me?

Anything else I could check?
