It isn't your fault, Tom. *I* helped with the breakage by changing the
Makefiles to actually use the results of an existing test in configure.
Before, several makefiles had references to cpp hardcoded in, and afaik
nowhere were the configure results used. That broke when I tried
installing egcs on my development system, which seemed to be missing an
explicit cpp.

That was maybe a month ago.
