Uh... yuck.

Are there some details on the GDB and BINUTILS snapshot processes so that
I can fix *them*?  This change is going to happen eventually, even if
it's reverted for now; the Makefile changes will be necessary for
autoonfiscation.

Wait, let me look at Makefile.in...

Ewwwww.  The taz rules use Makefile.in *as a Makefile*. 
That's the root of the problem, isn't it?  Incidentally, that's
disgusting. :-)  

1. Is there a simple way to stop doing this, by generating a proper
Makefile?

2. If not, how about generating an alternate file 'Makefile.in.for.taz'
(better names solicited) for these rules to use, so that the ordinary
Makefile.in can keep progressing?  Would that do?  I think that's pretty
easy.
