I have successfully built gcc and gnat, which is compiled by gcc.  But
some of the text files give me the IMPRESSION that gcc produces assembly code
tailored to gas.  If that's true:

1. How can I build gcc without gas?

2. If gcc was built without gas, can gas be built with gcc?
   (The makefile just uses cc)

3. If gcc was build without gas, would there be any benefit to rebuilding
   gcc WITH gas?

If it makes any difference, I'm on SPARCs.

Thanks,

Wes Groleau

P.S. 4. Are there other gnu progs that should be aquired first to significantly
speed up the above?
