2                Notes on enabling maintainer mode
3
4Note that if you configure with --enable-maintainer-mode, you will need
5special versions of automake, autoconf, libtool and gettext. You will
6find the sources for these in ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/binutils.

8Note - "make distclean" does not work with maintainer mode enabled.
9The Makefiles in the some of the po/ subdirectories depend upon the
10Makefiles in their parent directories, and distclean will delete the
11Makefiles in the parent directories before running the Makefiles in
12the child directories.  There is no easy way around this (short of
13changing the automake macros) as these dependencies need to exist in
14order to correctly build the NLS files.
