Re: problem bootstrapping egcs

 the build of egcs.  My understanding was that to bootstrap over the change
 I should first (before the make world) do:

VERY wrong.  All you want to do is a normal ``make world'' (or ``make
buildworld'')

 # cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc; make clean; make obj
 # make
...
 === cc
...
 /usr/obj/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc/cc/../cc_drv/libcc_drv.a(choose-temp.o):
 In function `make_temp_file':
 choose-temp.o(.text+0x284): undefined reference to `mkstemps'
 *** Error code 1

There are bootstraping issues that are dealt with in ``make world'' that
you are not handling in your manually doing it.  In this case egcs
depends on new libc functionality and you haven't manually built a new
libc first.

Of course ``make world'' builds the important librarires 1st and then
uses those when compiling the commands and other binaries.

Hup, you're right, sorry about the false alarm.  It all builds great.
