OK, then somebody should update INSTALL with the allowed/working
procedures. Currently it quite clearly states:

Configuring and compiling GNU Libc
==================================

   GNU Libc cannot be compiled in the source directory.  You must
create a separate directory for the object files.  This directory
should be outside the source tree.  For example, if you have unpacked
the glibc sources in `/src/gnu/glibc-2.1.0', create a directory
`/src/gnu/glibc-build' to put the object files in.

   From your object directory, run the shell script `configure' found
at the top level of the source tree.  In the scenario above, you'd type

     $ ../glibc-2.1.0/configure ARGS...


Franz.
