I'm stuck at the same place with my latest crosscompiler, cygwin -
vax-netbsd. It will build object files that are correct, but the linker
claims that they aren't vax a.out objects...

I seem to remember some hack i had to make when i built my solaris-sparc -
netbsd-vax crosscompiler. But unfortunately i have wiped the
sources... :-( 

I think it was a bug in the bfd library though, which built correctly but
got the byte order in the header of the files wrong. I'm not sure though,
it's been quite a while since i tinkered with this stuff.

Passwords are like underwear. You don't share them, you don't hang them on
your monitor or hide them under your keyboard, you don't email them, or put 
them on a website, and you must change them very often.
