[M3devel] Missing .M3EXPORTS

[Rodney M. Bates]

No, I hadn't, but it didn't help.  Note it is in m3core that the
.M3EXPORTS is not found, while I was trying to compile in m3middle.

In any case, it should be normal to do a compile in a directory
that has a partially populated LINUXLIBC6 (or whatever), expecting
the compiler to figure out what to do.

I tried departing from the listed order and building/shipping
m3core and libm3, before m3middle, and that got the bootstrap
going.  These did not have a LINUXLIBC6 directory, I suppose
because of the realclean.
