New and exciting gcc compilation problem

[Bill Bumgarner <bbum@friday.com>]

OK--

	I downloaded gcc_2.7.2.1-1.tar.gz;  the debianized source for gcc.
	
	Untarred it.
	
	cd into it and:
	
chmod a+x debian.rules
./debian.rules dist

... it goes into an infinite loop on the 'build' target!

Now-- what is really strange is that it works just fine on another Linux  
box with the same configuration [as far as I can tell].

Now-- anyone have any ideas why this is happening?

I wish the source archives had dependencies so that I know what versions of  
what developer components I need to build a package.
