I understand, but I don't quite agree.  There seems to be little
appreciation of just how many 3B2 systems are "gathering dust" in
various places, for want of some decent software.  GNU offers the
promise, but those writing GNU software are into Suns, SGIs, and other
"high end" machines.  

I have received source (1.29) for GCC with 3B2 machine description files
 and am trying to compile it on a 3B2/300 under SysV Release 3.0.
Currently cc() is burping on stmt.c because it fills the symbol table
prematurely.  This is an example of the slow pace at which such a
project proceeds.  Someone else is working on this, too, and sent me
binaries.  Unfortunately, they produce syntactically incorrect code for
as(), so additional repair is needed.

I've tried to 'organize' the 3B2 do-it-ourselves community onto a
mailing list and haven been discouraged from doing so by folks loyal to
AT&T.  I'd like to hear from people who have attempted GNU on a 3B2 and
where they are in the process.
