Hello!

We want to build GCC for AIX 4.1.x, but there is no XLC on
it.  We do have Linux 1.2.x with GCC-2.6.3 on the same
local network - technically there is a hack with rsh, so
GCC (cross-compiled for rs6000-ibm-aix) under Linux (i486)
would invoke `as' and `ld' at the AIX side (PowerPC 601).
There are all needed binutils (as, ld, etc.) and libraries
on AIX (at least I think so).  I have sources for GCC-2.5.8.
Now, here are questions:

1) Do I need not empty libgcc1.a to build cross compiler for
   rs6000-*-aix?

2) Is it possible to build GCC for rs6000-aix using the cross compiler
   under i486-linux (maybe somebody have done this)?

I would appreciate any help.
Thank you in advance,
