You should now have a 'buildtools' folder that contains folders named
'binutils' and 'gcc' among others.
'binutils', 'gcc', and 'jam' among others.
Several other tools are required to build these build tools or are used by
Haiku's build system itself:
* gcc and the binutils (as, ld, etc., required by gcc)
* make (GNU make)
* bison
* flex and lex (usually a mini shell script invoking flex)
* makeinfo (part of texinfo, needed for building gcc 4 only)
Whether they are installed can be tested for instance by running them in the
shell with the "--version" parameter.
