As a follow-up to my patches to pmc2c.pl submitted in RT #41020, I am submitting a patch for config/gen/makefiles/root.in to create a new target, 'testbuildtools'. The purpose of this target is to enable a Parrot develop to test tools/build/pmc2c.pl (and the methods from lib/Parrot/Pmc2c/Utils.pm on which it draws) *before* calling 'make'. The target runs the 8 test files in t/tools/pmc2cutils/*.t, the latest versions of which I submitted last night. I took a guess that root.in was the correct file into which to place this new target, and I have been able to run 'make testbuildtools' and 'make' with no problem since doing so. But since I don't understand much about the config/ directory and process, please let me know if that's not the right place for this code. Thank you very much. kid51
