Hi,

I'm new here, so be nice  :o)

I need a sparc-elf C compiler to run under Cygwin.  No problem I thought,
just download gcc and binutils, then run configure & make.  10 minute job!

Well it wasn't that easy.  Make doesn't want to do anything...

$ make
make[1]: Entering directory `/c/binutils/binutils-2.17-sparc-elf'
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all-host'.
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all-target'.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/c/binutils/binutils-2.17-sparc-elf'
$

I can't say I fully understand the Makefile, but it seems to set up a
variable called SUBDIRS which lists all the tools, but then not use it.

What am I doing wrong?  I'm sure there must be a simple solution, but it's
got me baffled.  I also get the same problem if I try to build native
Cygwin binutils

Thanks!
