They are necessary only if one's toolnames (like mine)don't follow the
default '<target>-tool' naming convention, like 'powerpc-eabi-gcc'. Unix users
prefer? shorter names like 'ppc-gcc' or 'gcc-ppc'... It's either using
those long names day after day, or renaming/symlinking them to shorter ones...

Let's hope this bug has been corrected in gcc-2.95...
Anyway my fix would be that the input Objective-C part for Makefile would
have a definition for 'OBJC_FOR_TARGET' somewhere in the beginning:
OBJC_FOR_TARGET = `$(GCC_FOR_TARGET) -print-prog-name=cc1obj`
This runs the value of 'GCC_FOR_TARGET' with the given option and gets the
right pathname for the 'cc1obj' for the target. The file to edit is
'gcc/objc/Make_lang.in' or something...
Furthermore the offending line in 'gcc/Makefile.in' the './cc1obj' should
be edited to be '$(OBJC_FOR_TARGET)'...
This is how I have fixed the './cc1obj'-bug in my egcs-1.1.2 sources... but
haven't officially reported it as a bug to 'egcs-bugs@cygnus.com'...
Cheers, Kai
