If anyone wants the patches necessary to do cross compiling with gcc
(little->big endian or big->little), please send me email and I'll ship
them out.  (Tom, I already sent them out to you).  The only details you
have to bother with in gcc is the ordering of bytes in doubles, since
everything else it specified in the config files.  The various binutils
need to be modified to handle byte swapped objects (which are maintained
in the target system's format).  We've been using gcc in house for 9 months
to produce 68K executables on VAXen and 386es.

P.S.  If there is enough interest, and if any of the archive sites are willing,
perhaps the patches can be made available for anon ftp/uucp.
