Hi,
When compiling make-3.79 on BeOS, I encountered the following problems:
1) Compilation error in arscan.c. BeOS doesn't have the <ar.h> header file.
But it has archive libraries, and uses the GNU binutils to create them.
I therefore copied the contents of glibc's <ar.h> into arscan.c, and
verified using "od -x" that it accurately represents the data layout of
archive libraries on BeOS.

* arscan.c [BeOS]: Add replacement for nonexistent <ar.h>.

2) Error during "make distclean":

make distclean
breaks as follows:

Apparently $(MAKE) = /bework/gnubuild/make-3.79/./make has been removed
during the "make distclean". I think, recursing into the subdirectories
first, and removing the files in the current directory afterwards should
fix the problem.
