I got gas to work (I think) and now I've moved on to gcc.  I do the following:

   configure --host=sun4 --target=i960
   make CC=gcc LANGAUGES=c

It gets to the point where it tries to build libgcc2 and dies with a bunch of
"unknown opcode" messages.  My guess is that it's trying to assemble some
i960 code but it's sending it to the sun assembler rather than the i960
cross assembler.  I tried

   make CC=gcc LANGUAGES=c AS=i960-vxworks-as

but that didn't work.

I am also puzzled by something else.  The cross assembler that I was able
to build produces b.out files.  I know about a.out files, but what's a
b.out file?  Obviously it's some other object file format, but what is it
used for?

Thanks,
