Oh well, ignore all that, I looked at the error again and it was actually
this :

make.exe[3]: Entering directory `c:/djgpp/gnu/binutl-2.951/bfd'
c:/djgpp/bin/sh.exe ./../mkinstalldirs /g68/lib
c:/djgpp/bin/sh.exe ./libtool  --mode=install c:/djgpp/bin/sh.exe
/dev/c/djgpp/gnu/binutl-2.951/install-sh -c libbfd.la /g68/lib/libbfd.la
libtool: install: `/g68/lib/libbfd.la' is not a directory
Try `libtool --help --mode=install' for more information.
make.exe[3]: *** [install-libLTLIBRARIES] Error 1

Therefore fixed as follows : comment out the first line and insert the
second line in the makefile in the top level directory (in my case
:\djgpp\gnu\binutl-2.951) after running configure

# INSTALL = $(SHELL) $$s/install-sh -c
INSTALL = c:/djgpp/bin/ginstall -c

Now to build the compiler ...

Cheers,

Phil
