m68k fails to build with crosstool

[Steve Papacharalambous]

Hi Peter,

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I didn't delete the existing autoconf 
and binutils, but installed the new versions in /usr/local/bin on the 
build machine, and changed PATH to make sure that the new versions were 
picked up when I ran crosstool,

Best regards,

Steve
