Segmentation fault?  hmmm, first I thought it was the lack of FPU, but
now I'm not sure....  Anyway, without FPU, you wouldn't be able to do
very interesting things even if you didn't have these seg faults.
Sorry, I'm the one working on the FPU emulator, and it is emerging
though very slowly...  Please be patient for a little longer...

You'll have to at least build a gcc for 68k cross compilation, and
compile "config" and maybe BSD "make" binaries that run on linux.
Beyond that, it's a twilight zone to me.
