did you run configure ? configure creates makefiles

I'm getting lost by reading this mail.
Let me sum up stages and tell me where it fails, I'll help you
- Compile and install binutils-1.9.1.0.19a
./configure --target=arm-linux --prefix=where_you_want
make
make install
- add where_you_want/bin in your PATH
- Untar egcs, patch it, find . -name "*.rej"
- enter egcs dir, then ./configure --target=arm-linux --
prefix=wher_you_want_the_same
- modify makefile to add -Dinhibit-libc in CFLAGS
- make -i LANGUAGES=c
- make -i LANGUAGES=c install
compile glibc, with
prefix=/where_you_want_not_the_same_as_above
make, make install
go back in egcs,
./configure --prefix=same_place_as_first_time --with-
headers=/where_you_put_glibc/include --with-
libs=/where_you_put_glibc/lib --target=arm-linux
make LANGUAGES="c c++"
make LANGUAGES="c c++" install
DONE
