I'm getting the same thing from a fresh checkout made @ 
12:30 EST (GMT -5:00).  Still bitching about symlink-tree 
not in the build directory.  When I copy the missing script 
to the build dir, it starts symlinking the libiberty object 
files(?!?!) and then it starts in about there being no rule 
in libiberty/Makefile to make 
../../src/libiberty/Makefile.in.  It seems to think I 
enabled maintainer mode when I know I didn't.  I'll have a 
look at it to see if I can't fix it, however I doubt I'll 
have much luck.  The main problem is that modifications to 
these scripts require some archaic version of the autotools 
which don't seem to work all that well on Cygwin (well 
libtool doesn't work at all).  Attempts to use more modern 
versions screw up the delicate voodoo gluing the configury 
together.  This, coupled with the marked propensity for 
people to hand insert macros into aclocal.m4, makes the task 
a bit daunting :-).

Cheers,
Nicholas
