the words "Entering" and "Leaving" never appear in the output I  
captured....
typical output from gnu-make when making gcc is such tossed-salad- 
scrambled-eggs
that nothing is readable, most lines are hundreds of characters long,  
as you can see
below the average is over 400 chars/line, here is some sample output  
from my failed build,
you can't really tell much of anything from reading this output
