I installed gcc-2.0 on my Sun SPARCstation 2 running SunOS 4.1.2
without errors.  I then tried to make install-fixincludes, but the make
script seemed to go into an infinite loop when it tried to make the
link to machine/fpu -> sparc/fpu.  The relevant lines from the output
of make install-fixincludes appears below:

Making directories:

machine/fpu -> sparc/fpu : Making link

machine/machine/machine -> machine/machine : Making link
machine/machine/machine/fpu -> sparc/fpu : Making link

machine/machine/machine/machine/fpu -> sparc/fpu : Making link
machine/machine/machine/machine/machine ->
machine/machine/machine/machine : Making link
[I CTRL-C'ed here.]

Has anyone else encountered this behavior?  Has anyone solved it?  TIA.
