Just copy your favorit a.out to the binutils-1.9 directory, and add -I. in
front of the CFLAGS variable in the Makefile. I did that and links files
for a standalone card containing a NS32K, from a DECstation. This worked
for ld. For nm, ar, and ranlib, you may have to copy more includefiles,
such as ar.h (I dont know if they are are identical on sun3 and sun4, I'm
using the one from dec ;). Just remember that the targetmachine and the
machine you are doing the linking on must be the same byte-order.
