My builds still can't get past the tools step; I don't know whether
this is a crossbuild issue or if I'm missing something in my
environment.  Basically, the build can't install the host-mkdep file
because it can't find here:

$BUILDDIR/i386/O/tools/host-mkdep/

which is an empty directory.  host-mkdep is nowhere in the build
directory,  though I can see it in $SRC/tools/host-mkdep/

Any clues?
