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?
