Andrew Burgess 86c1ed137a gdbsupport: remove attempt to define TARGET_WORD_SIZE
In the gdbsupport configure.ac file, there is an attempt to define
TARGET_WORD_SIZE.  This is done by running grep on the file
../bfd/bfd-in3.h.

The problem with this is, the file bfd-in3.h is generated into the bfd
build directory when bfd is configured, and there is no dependency
between the gdbsupport module and the bfd module, so, for example, if
I do:

  $ ../src/configure
  $ make all-gdbsupport

Then bfd will neither be configured, or built.  In this case
TARGET_WORD_SIZE ends up being defined, but with no value because the
grep on bfd-in3.h fails.

However, it turns out that this doesn't matter; we don't actually use
TARGET_WORD_SIZE anywhere.

My proposal in this commit is to just remove the definition of
TARGET_WORD_SIZE, the alternative would be to add a dependency between
configure-gdbsupport and configure-bfd into Makefile.def, but adding a
dependency for something we don't need seems pretty pointless.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make
