Hello, I did not see any reference to this architecture but I know that someone was working on it. Is there anything available (gcc 2)? At the time (maybe couple of years now) I got some gcc 1 definitions which I completed and got to compile a large system of mine; it had no library and needed some help handling the ascii/ebcdic (I cross compiled of course) and also could not break the 4k section limit - which meant that the gcc maintainer considered it not usefull. It was suggested that gcc 2 will be much more suitable for the 370 architecture (minimal addressing modes, very few instruction formats and most registers are general purposei - pity there is no stack).
