It has something to do with the $(HOST_OFILES) macro. If I replace 
it with the list of files itself, it compiles fine. It must be a
bug in bashs. CygWin has improved a lot, but it still a pain.


$(RULE2): $(REQUIRED_OFILES) $(HOST_OFILES)
	rm -rf $(TARGETLIB)
	$(AR) $(AR_FLAGS) $(TARGETLIB) $(REQUIRED_OFILES) asprintf.o insque.o
sigsetmask.o vasprintf.o random.o
#	$(AR) $(AR_FLAGS) $(TARGETLIB) $(HOST_OFILES)
	$(RANLIB) $(TARGETLIB)

Making this simple kludge, I could get the libiberty to compile ok.

A bit later, 
I have got another error. Now the linker does not find this symbol:


/bin/sh ./libtool --mode=link gcc -g -O2  -o size.exe  size.o bucomm.o
version.o
 filemode.o ../bfd/libbfd.la ../libiberty/libiberty.a
gcc -g -O2 -o size.exe size.o bucomm.o version.o filemode.o
../bfd/.libs/libbfd.
a ../libiberty/libiberty.a
../bfd/.libs/libbfd.a(archures.o): In function `bfd_archures_list':

make[1]: *** [size.exe] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/build/or32/binutils/binutils'
make: *** [all-binutils] Error 2

And this is just the start of Binutils. Getting the toolset compiling
with CygWin
can be a major undertaking. Specially, because this is a brand new
target.
