I'm trying to build a minimal set of gnu cc compiler tools (gcc-2.1,
gas, binutils-1.9/{ar,ranlib,ld,nm}) that will run on a sparc but
manipulate sun3 binaries.

gcc-2.1 is designed for doing this.

binutils-1.9 is not.

For example, ld includes <a.out.h>, which on a sun4, trapses through
/usr/include/machine/a.out, which through symbolic links eventually
comes back to /usr/include/sun4/a.out, which is not what I'd like to
build a ld that knows about sun3 binaries.

Has anybody built these binutils tools for such a cross develoment
environment?
