 Hi,
 
 For my second try I used the objdir /software/gcc-3.2.1-obj. There I in=
 voked
 the configure-script with absolute path: /software/gcc-3.2.1/configure =
 2>&1 | tee configure.out.
 Then I did gmake bootstrap 2>&1 | tee gmake.out
 and still got the error "no rule to make target bootstrap".
 
 (See attached file: gmake.out.gz)(See attached file: configure.out.gz)
 
 Does anybody see further mistakes I may have made?

 In my experience, if objdir is a subdirectory of srcdir AND configure
 is invoked by a relative pathname, it doesn't work.  But if configure
 is invoked by an absolute pathname, objdir can happily be a
 subdirectory of srcdir; and if objdir is not a subdirectory of srcdir,
 relative paths work fine.
 
 I don't remember the exact failure mode, but it was clearly a case of
 some shell script fragment somewhere getting mixed up about how many
 ../ components it needed to put in a pathname.
