Does this mean that:

	C:\build> sh ...../NetBSD/src/gnu/toolchain/configure --target=arm-elf
	...

finally works? :-)

Of the choices, I think this has the greatest number of long term
advantages.  If nothing else, it should help simplify the
tracking/merging of NetBSD local changes to the GNU tools.

BTW, I'd look at adding dejagnu (however, watch out for its custom tcl).

enjoy,
