>Environment:
System: Linux localhost.localdomain 2.4.18 #7 Don Jul 11 21:38:33 NOVST 2002 i686 unknown
Architecture: i686

	
host: i686-pc-linux-gnu
build: i686-pc-linux-gnu
target: i686-pc-linux-gnu
configured with: ../gcc-3.2/configure --prefix=/usr/local/gcc-3.2 --enable-languages=c,c++,java,f77
>Description:
	after I ran make install I got:
for cat in ; do \
  lang=`basename $cat | sed 's/\.gmo$//'`; \
  if [ -f $cat ]; then :; \
  elif [ -f ../../gcc-3.2/gcc/$cat ]; then cat=../../gcc-3.2/gcc/$cat; \
  else continue; \
  fi; \
  dir=/usr/local/gcc-3.2/share/locale/$lang/LC_MESSAGES; \
  echo /bin/sh ../../gcc-3.2/gcc/mkinstalldirs $dir; \
  /bin/sh ../../gcc-3.2/gcc/mkinstalldirs $dir || exit 1; \
  echo /bin/sh /usr/src/gcc/gcc-3.2/install-sh -c -m 644 $cat $dir/gcc.mo; \
  /bin/sh /usr/src/gcc/gcc-3.2/install-sh -c -m 644 $cat $dir/gcc.mo; \
done
/bin/sh: -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `;'

This is on account of the fact I didn't need any localization files to be installed and the corresponding variable in the makefile turned out to be empty.

>How-To-Repeat:
	set environment var LINGUAS=en, configure, bootstrap and `make install'
>Fix:
 Probably it makes sense to treat such a case specially when constructing Makefile, or put an a branch in it so that in my case the loop is never entered.
