             Bug #: 2107
           Summary: Cygwin build fails with binutils installed under
                    $PREFIX
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: RTEMS Source Builder
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Code
        AssignedTo: chrisj at rtems.org
        ReportedBy: chrisj at rtems.org


If there are tools already installed under the $PREFIX path building a "host ==
build" compiler fails because the binaries under $PREFIX are MinGW tools which
run and are executables how-ever they are not cygwin executables and the "host
== build" compiler sees them in configure how-ever fails to detect the default
suffix.

The RSB cannot delete the installed tools because other tools may be installed.

There must be a path being added somewhere. Until that is found the work around
is to manually make sure no binutils tools are under the $PREFIX.
