When I try to build a linux-user target, I get:

Makefile:84: *** missing `endif'.  Stop.

As best as I can figure out, what happens is that when we call eval from
set-vpath, make is checking that there are no dangling conditionals at
the end of the input.  But in this case make is doing the wrong thing:
the input is just what gets fed to eval, not the wider Makefile from
which eval was called.

To restore buildability of the *-user configs, move calls to set-vpath
out from under ifdefs, and conditionally provide a path for set-vpath.

Uhm, out of curiosity what make is this?  Lots of patches have been 
committed to *-user in the meanwhile, so it looks like a problem in your 
make.

This happens to me with three different versions of make:

- 3.80, no patches applied.
- 3.81, no patches applied.
- 3.81 from Ubuntu Hardy (I haven't looked to see what patches are applied).

I realize that other people have been humming along with *-user builds,
but perhaps the distro that they use patches make appropriately?
(Certainly the set-vpath patch indicates that some distro(s), somewhere,
apply some set of patches to make...?)

Interesting.  BTW I am using Fedora.  Given this,
