Re porting 386bsd to the pc532.

Wouldn't it be easier to build a cross-compile environment on a 386bsd system
than to try and do this from Minix?  That's what I was hacking on last time I
had time.  I had gcc2.2.2 running as a cross-compiler, had gas running, and
was looking at ld issues when I got involved in a hardware project that has
sucked up most of my time.  

Actually, I'm using BSDI's BSD/386, and not the Jolitz bits, but for this 
purpose, they're virtually identical.

With the 386/486 and 532 chips having the same byte-ordering, it would seem to
me that the issues of processor are very managable here, and you don't have to
deal with OS issues.
