When doing a 'make world -DCLOBBER', crt0.o is nuked. It's needed to make gnu/lib/limgmp (and libmp), but lib/csu/i386/ (where crt0.o is built) is not targeted until later on in the 'libraries' target. So, lib/csu/i386/ needs to be moved from below secure/ to just below lib/termcap/. Additionally, if this fails, you end up with a bunch of libraries missing that are needed in target 'lib-tools' (because the -DCLOBBER nuked them). These include crt0.o, scrt0.o, libgcc.a, libc, and libmalloc. One is left to dig and manually re-make these libraries, or complete the rest of the build manually (since doing a make world again will fail time and again). This may be taking the idea of pre-targets a little far, but what about a target that builds these critical libraries only if they are missing? When they are built, the $CLEANDIR variable could be left off of the line so that when they are rebuilt during target 'libraries', the object aren't trashed. j.home | help
