No rule to make target `../sim/arm/libsim.a', needed by `gdb.exe'

Hello all.

I want to add new machine(simulator) to the gnu tool chain.
I have built the binutils gcc and newlib successfully.
When i build the gdb,i encounter the problem.
The error message is as follow:

make[1]: *** No rule to make target `../sim/arm/libsim.a', needed by 
`gdb.exe'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/d/thesis/build/gdb/gdb'

I have the modified the following file /gdb-6.0/config.sub 
/gdb-6.0/gdb/configure.tgt /gdb-6.0/gdb/configure.host

I inspect the make.out file,and i find that it would not configing the 
/sim/common and /sim/ASP.
The ASP is my new machine(simulator)
How can i do ?

                                        thank a lot!!

> Hello all.

cd to your GDB/build/gdb directory and then run:
	sh -x .../src/gdb/configure --target=<your-target>
you should see the problem (and a few others).  It's using
src/gdb/config/arm/arm.md (or similar, which refers to libsim.a) instead
of src/gdb/config/asp/asp.md.  You'll need to do some more config hacking.
