Success on native compilation of HURD



Hello,

I finally managed to recompile the Hurd, natively. Not surprisingly,
Marcus was right about the difficulties in setting up a cross-compilation
environment; I got some weird assembler errors and gave up.

I then tried native compilation from current CVS, which gave me the
following error in the serverboot subdirectory:

make[2]: *** No rule to make target `boot_script.o', needed by
`serverboot'.  Stop.

The patch below may not be the best solution, but with this change to the
Makefile I managed to successfully recompile and install the new Hurd
which I am now running.
