How difficult is it to build the programs for generating VAX binaries? 
Is doing it on NetBSD much less convoluted than what I had to do for
Linux?  I'm just wondering because I have a Sun 4/260 that's running
NetBSD/sparc, and I might be interested in setting up a cross
compilation environment on that.

BTW.  The Linux tools for generating NetBSD/vax binaries and the
modified sources are available at:
http://www.mnsi.net/~bgjenero/xcompile/
(I'm sorry... this is not necessarily release quality... the source
should compile, but I think some paths may be hardcoded in)

I don't have gcc there because my space is too limited, but gcc
shouldn't be too much trouble anyways.  Just ignore the udiv error that
happens when testing libgcc
