However, my guess at a fix for gdb/708 is that dejagnu/Makefile.am needs a distclean-local to parallel clean-local, which distcleans in example/. The failure in itcl/ appears to be a configure script bug with autoconf 2.5. Keith fixed this on mainline on Sep. 5th: * configure.in (subdirs): New variable. Don't put AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS macro into configure.in twice: it confuses autoconf. Instead use the variable to hold the subdirs to be configured. * configure: Regenerated. This should probably go to the branch. -- Daniel Jacobowitz MontaVista Software Debian GNU/Linux Developer
