------- Comment #7 from rwild at gcc dot gnu dot org 2010-09-18 05:55 ------- I'll look into it. (Not changing state to Assigned, as I haven't confirmed yet.)
>From looking at libstdc++-v3/src/Makefile.am, the issue should have been present for the last few (>=3) years already, though. If you have a newer date to pinpoint the regression, that would be helpful to find out what masked it before that. Thanks. You won't see it on GNU/Linux (or any other system with the GNU coreutils install/mkdir programs) because the build system will rarely use install-sh there. I agree that specifying ab absolute path when invoking toplevel configure, should be a workaround for this issue. FWIW, optionally disabling relative paths for helper scripts is on the TODO list for Autoconf, <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.autoconf.bugs/7413> -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45711
