Rebuilding RTEMS

[Angelo Fraietta]

It appears that the linkcmds file is sometimes not being copied into
build-rtems/i386-rtems/pc386/lib directory during the make. I can copy it
over by hand and complete the build, but I shouldn't really have to.
Somewhere during the build process it must copy this file from the
appropriate startup directory. If that part fails, maybe the build should
stop there??
When is the file cpoied over?
