more problems building RTEMS 4.6.99.3 powerpc on cygwin

I have exactly the same problem, except my BSP is using the
old-exceptions; just substitute "old" for "new", and same thing.  I
thought it was peculiar to a set of patches I've been working with for a
Virtex part, though, so I didn't mention it on the Wiki.  I spent some
time looking for it, but wasn't able to find it.  I was hoping to
resolve it eventually...

I have been working around it in the meantime.  What seems to be
happening is the the cpu_asm.o file is indeed being built, but it is
either built, or looked for, in the wrong location.  My error and
workaround is here:

    \
    then mv -f
    "old-exceptions/.deps/old_exceptions_rtems_cpu_rel-cpu.Tpo"

    powerpc-rtems-gcc --pipe -B../../../../.././lib/

    Wl,-r old-exceptions/old_exceptions_rtems_cpu_rel-cpu.o

    make[5]: *** [old-exceptions/rtems-cpu.rel] Error 1
    make[5]: Leaving directory
    `/cygdrive/c/Home/ll/etill/rtems-4.6.99.3/tools/b-rtems/powerpc-rtems/c/gen405/lib/libcpu/pow

    $ cp -i powerpc-rtems/c/gen405/lib/libcpu/powerpc/cpu_asm.o
    powerpc-rtems/c/gen405/lib/libcpu/powerpc/old-exceptions/
    $ make all

After this, I get two more similar errors,  and I assume it's the same
situation, so I work around it the same way.

    powerpc-rtems-gcc --pipe -B../../../../.././lib/
    -B../../../../.././gen405/lib/ -specs bsp_specs -qrtems -Wall -mcpu=403
     -D_OLD_EXCEPTIONS -Dppc405 -O4 -fno-keep-inline-functions -g   -o
    ppc403/vectors.rel -qnolinkcmds -nostdlib -Wl,-r ppc4
    03/vectors/vectors.o ppc403/vectors/align_h.o
    powerpc-rtems-gcc: ppc403/vectors/vectors.o: No such file or directory
    powerpc-rtems-gcc: ppc403/vectors/align_h.o: No such file or directory
    make[5]: *** [ppc403/vectors.rel] Error 1
    make[5]: Leaving directory
    `/cygdrive/c/Home/ll/etill/rtems-4.6.99.3/tools/b-rtems/powerpc-rtems/c/gen405/lib/libcpu/pow
    erpc'


    $ cp -i powerpc-rtems/c/gen405/lib/libcpu/powerpc/vectors.o
    powerpc-rtems/c/gen405/lib/libcpu/powerpc/ppc403/vectors/
    $ cp -i powerpc-rtems/c/gen405/lib/libcpu/powerpc/align_h.o
    powerpc-rtems/c/gen405/lib/libcpu/powerpc/ppc403/vectors/
    $ make all

This gets me done.  As you stated earlier, I too am "far from being an
expert on the configure.ac and makefile.am stuff", so I'm not sure how
to resolve it, but for now the workaround is good enough; after all, my
real job is what I am developing with RTEMS...  :-P

That being said, I'm sure interested in fixing it properly!
