Hi everybody!

I've been trying to build the binutils 2.91 package from sources, but 
it doesn't work out. The configure scripts check my system etc., but they 
abort after the script finds out it my linker ld isn't acceptable, and that 
there was no suitable ranlib in my path (although it is).

I'm using gcc2.95, binutils 2.81 and djdev 2.02 under Win95. Can somebody 
please tell me what's going wrong, or point me to some documentation or faq 
that tells something about building GNU-packages with DJGPP?

Thanks in advance,

Peter Wuesten
