  Cross-assembler is any assembler running on processor A and
producing binary for processor B.  Different endianities and
ideas about byte size may make them "a bit interesting" beasts.

  Well, 1.38 didn't quite do it.
Have  gas-2.0 (nic.funet.fi:/pub/gnu/gas-2.0.tar.z)
and   binutils-2.1.tar.[zZ] (gzip and compress -formats available there)
You will find them somewhere in Australia as well (archie.au ?)

Gas-2.0 is configurable to produce cross-compilation a.out, and
binutils-2.X know how to manage opject files in N formats..
