   Anybody have an idea as to why bash finishes the make without error and
   does not produce bash?  I run make and it finishes *without* any errors
   and no bash.  Make output looks like this:

	   cc  -O -Bstatic -o bash shell.o y.tab.o general.o make_cmd.o print_cmd.o dispose_cmd.o execute_cmd.o variables.o builtins.o copy_cmd.o flags.o jobs.o subst.o glob.o hash.o mailcheck.o test.o trap.o alias.o ./alloc-files/malloc.o  braces.o unwind_prot.o  bashline.o ulimit.o version.o  -l./readline/libreadline.a -l/usr/lib/libtermcap.a   -ltermcap

   That is the last thing I see.  Note this line executes *very* fast.  It
   is obvious in fact that it is doing nothing.  Why no bash and why no
   error?

    Thanks

Are all your .o files of zero length?
