arm-none-eabi build does fail with the error:

<...>/binutils/arm-none-eabi/libgloss/arm'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/../config/default.mh', needed by 
`Makefile'.  Stop.

Without your previous change, it works though:

             * arm/configure.in: Fix host_makefile_frag to use ac_abs_srcdir.
             * arm/configure: Regenerated.

Could you please have a look? Thanks.

Cheers
VP.
