	Some time ago I posted the following article to comp.arch,
	and got a few answers, but nobody was interested enough to
	send me any information.

	I was told by Intel Postmaster that my article was forwarded
	to the 860 team, but I have not heard from them since.

	So I'm still asking if anyone could help me. If someone
	has a linker manual and would be kind enough to send me a copy
	I could finish the job.

Repost of my comp.arch article:

	I ported the GNU assembler for the Intel 80860 RISC chip,
	but since I don't know what kind of relocation info the
	Intel linker for the machine uses, the resulting binary
	is not too useful.

	With hypothetic relocation info and the GNU a.out.gnu.h
	(BSD like executable file header info) I also modified
	the GNU linker to load the object files that the assembler
	generates. (This is of course not useful until such an
	operating system exists for the machine :-)

	I would like to know if anyone could help me to get the
	exact object file format and relocation stuff that
	the Intel linker for the machine uses.

	Also, I have some questions of the syntax of the assembly
	language.  (GNU CC 1.35.97 generates syntax that does not
	conform with the programmers reference manual for the
	machine.)

	I would also appreciate an email address of someone who
	knows about this.

	Please mail all responses to me.

			Thanks for your time,
