No, this is definitely incorrect.  srcdir is the path (it may be
relative or absolute) to the GCC source tree.  It's not necessary to be
placed in the parent directory of objdir.

Fair enough.

Can the spelling corrections still be merged? Or should I re-submit the patch without that line?

Kind regards, Jonny

The spelling corrections look OK to me.

Do you have an account that can push commits, or would you need this
done for you?

Please can you add Signed-off-by lines to your patches/commits
(via -s); see https://gcc.gnu.org/dco.html

Thanks
Dave

Hi Dave

Would need someone to push the commits as I don't have an account.

I'll use -s for next patches, I've emailed again with the line added:

Signed-off-by: Jonathan Grant <jg@jguk.org>

Thanks, Jonny

Hi Dave

May I ask for review of my revised patch please.
