make with the default argument runs fine, although the .exe's generated are
much
larger than the ones I downloaded.  When I do a make install, I get the
following:
C:\djgpp\src\GNU\GCC-2721>make install
Syntax error
Bad command or file name
Bad command or file name
Bad command or file name
Bad command or file name
rm -f cpp
ln cccp cpp > /dev/null 2>&1 \
 || cp cccp cpp
Ambiguous output redirect.
make.exe: *** [cpp] Error -1

I have (I believe) all the necessary utilities like rm, ln, etc.

Running make with -n results in:
C:\djgpp\src\GNU\GCC-2721>make -n install
if [ ! -f config.status ] ; then \
  echo You must configure gcc.  Look at the INSTALL file for details.; \
  false; \
else \
  true; \
fi
rm -f cpp
ln cccp cpp > /dev/null 2>&1 \
 || cp cccp cpp
make.exe: *** No rule to make target `objc-runtime', needed by `objective-c'. 
S
top.

One of the problems seems to be that config.status is missing, however  I ran
configure.bat 
without any errors.

I am running make in the DOS window, not the Emacs shell.

In the DJGPP mail archives, I found hints regarding problems with building
DJGPP in Windows 95, 
but not a complete list of things to do.  Any suggestions ?

Thanks,
