I do too, at least now, but I used to have such links in
usr.bin/backend.   I removed them, and then things built ok.

So I think I had leftover .h symlinks in the *source tree* from before,
and cvs ignores them, but somehow they mess up the build.    I don't
understand why.

After removing them, building gcc/usr.bin/backend worked, and then an
update build.sh succeeded.


Overall I think there's a spurious cvsignore for symlinks that used to
be made in the sources, and it's really a bug to ever have made them.
