Chris, could you please take a look at this?  Thanks.
This looks like the gmake wildcard function problem.

Mr. Ulmer, could you supply the output of "make -v"?

> Platform: Playstation 2 "mips cpu"

NONOPT is not a valid configuration so MDCPUCFG_H isn't set which leads to that
make error.  (Note to self: add check for unknown platforms in configure.) 
IIRC, we have support for ps2linux (mipsEEel-linux) already in the tree so
`./configure` should autodetect the platform correctly.  If that doesn't work,
please provide the output of a fresh configure run and config.log.

Here is the output for "make -v"

"./configure" now completes without error, and without NONOPT.

gmake no longer stops at:

so, it appears the config.guess files in the CVS are not up to date for PS2Linux

Ah, that'll do it. 

Comment 6

[hacker formerly known as [e-mail]]

Actually, I'm going to bounce this up to the browser level since all of the
config.* files need to stay in sync.

Update & sync mozilla, nspr & ldap config.guess & config.sub

I reviewed the changes to NSPR's config.guess and config.sub.

I need the "msvc and mksnt" line in config.sub, so the change
below should be reverted.

This patch was already checked in last night.  Some of our custom hacks weren't
labelled so I missed them in the first pass.

Please land this on the 1.0.1 branch.  Once there, replace the
"mozilla1.0.1+" keyword with the "fixed1.0.1" keyword.
