Should be pretty harmless I think.

There is a known problem with building the distribution under both Win 95
and NT -- I think for configuration reasons tcl, tk, and gdbtk cannot
be rebuilt under NT and Win95, only cross-built under the Unix of your
choice.  (This part of b18 is more work-in-progress than the rest).

If you configure the sources adding a "--disable-gdbtk", it will build
the command-line version of gdb without the GUI and that should work
better.  If you only want to rebuild gcc, you might want to invoke
make with "make all-gcc" and then "make install-gcc" to avoid build
failures in tcl, tk, and/or gdb.  Alternatively, configure with
"--disable-gdbtk" and then build with "make -k" and install with "make -k
install" which tells make to try to kontinue past any build problems...
