>Description:

	In /usr/src/gnu/lib/libg++/Makefile, there is a line

          GPPDIR= ${.CURDIR}/../../../contrib/libg++

        GPPDIR is then referenced by several other lines.  Looking
        at /usr/src/contrib, however, I see no "libg++" directory.

        I have performed a "make buildworld" on my system and no
        fatal error occurs, so this seems to be non-critical.

>How-To-Repeat:

	% more /usr/src/gnu/lib/libg++/Makefile
        ...
        % ls /usr/src/contrib

>Fix:

	At the very least, there should be a comment in the Makefile,
        explaining what's going on.  If the code is simply out of
        date, however, it should probably be cleaned up.
