No, it's just the stock one from NetBSD. However, here's a real
problem: I had a look in the gcc directory. Here's the listing from
"common"

gerbils:/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/gcc/common

This makes me wonder what else is missing. The compiler is not big
deal. I have 2.7.2.1 already, so I can move is down and hit it with the
gcc2netbsd script.

Here's my supfile:

current release=allsrc host=ftp.cs.umn.edu hostbase=/ftp/ftp/packages/NetBSD base=/usr prefix=/usr backup use-rel-suffix
current release=security host=ftp.cs.umn.edu hostbase=/ftp/ftp/packages/NetBSD base=/usr prefix=/usr backup use-rel-suffix
current release=doc host=ftp.cs.umn.edu hostbase=/ftp/ftp/packages/NetBSD base=/usr prefix=/usr backup use-rel-suffix
#current release=othersrc host=ftp.cs.umn.edu hostbase=/ftp/ftp/packages/NetBSD base=/usr prefix=/usr backup use-rel-suffix


Maybe I need to try sup.netbsd.org? In any case, whoever maintains
ftp.cs.umn.edu may want to check out ther collection.

I would just as soon go with the geographicly closest host, though at
my speed it may not matter. Maybe someone can add locations to the
readme?

I'll look into the delete option, as well as the refuse option.

My spirit is high though...
