Hi,
I've been partially cross-compiling from linux/i386 using GCC
Using mostly stuff from patches refered to on the list, I managed to
get everything except the final link going, I do that by using nfs to cross
mount the development directories, & using rexec to do the link on the
vax. haven't really looked at it since...
I was working with an egcs-1.1.2 snapshot for linux-alpha..
and had been working on getting patches against a stock binutils 2.10.
the disk on the linux box died. (infant mortality [grr]) but I should
be able to recover things.
Not sure what anyone else is up to at the moment,..
Cheers,
Steve
