Doh!

I thought this would be the perfect answer but I completely forgot: the
whole point behind build.sh is that you _DON'T HAVE A MAKE PROGRAM_!

This shell script lets you build the GNU make distribution on a system
with no native make installed.

So, I can't put the rules to build the build.sh file in the Makefile,
since when you need build.sh there will not be any make to run the
Makefile.


I suppose I could tell those folks to run the config.status step by
hand, but I'd really like to get this built through the configure
script.  Ideas?
