Or I could invoke patch reversion and demand that RDA *not* be built 
from the top level, at least in GCC's version of the top level.  That 
also sounds entirely reasonable to me.

That sounds quite drastic to me.  If RDA doesn't build for you, take
it out of your local sources so it won't be built.  As for patch
reversion rules, the patch to add rda to gcc's configury did not break
anything in the gcc build, so there's no cause to revert it.

That reminds me of a similar problem in cygwin - a native libstdc++
build builds a program called "abi-check" but in a cygwin native
build, it's built *before* the cygwin runtime is, so the link always
fails (at least, if the just-built gcc is a different version than
host-gcc).

If I may hazard a guess, you're building cross compilers using a
sysroot or some other mechanism by which you've got target libc
available.  Does newlib provide enough for RDA?  And if you build a
powerpc-linux cross compiler, there's nothing to say you always have a
libc to link to.  RDA is the only thing I see in the target_modules
list which is present in either src or gcc, and is not a library.

Yes, please.  You forgot to explain what kind of error you're running
into.  I've been building rda in a cross build environment pretty much
daily.

i386-cygwin
powerpc-eabi
powerpc-linux

Need I go on?  RDA crashes cross configurations very consistently for 
me.  I'm sure it's a bug in RDA, but it's damaging my attempts to work 
on gcc, gdb, binutils, and anything else, and I'm not about to work on 
RDA.

I'll be happy to exclude RDA from building on every system I've ever 
tried to build a cross to, but that seemed more drastic.

This is not right.  rda is supposed to work in a cross set up.  If it
doesn't, there's something wrong for the particular target you're
building, which you failed to mention.  That would be a bug in rda, or
in the top level for failing to exclude rda from a broken set up.

(committed toplevel patch) Make rda native-only

[Nathanael Nerode]

RDA doesn't build properly in cross configurations, which is screwing up
my tests of the rest of the tree whenever the rda directory is avaialbe.
I'm committing this as obvious.

	* configure.in: Make rda native-only.
