Larry, I think that the eCos installation instructions will show you how to build a version of gcc that will handle the power pc. I've compiled a version of gcc for eCos that generates 386 code; it's named 'i386-elf-gcc'. They've got instructions on how to build versions for a number of different platforms. The procedure is to download the gcc tar file, untar it, configure it for your specific platform, and then run 'make'; all within the cygwin environment. Check out the eCos page and find the page that shows you how to install the specific tool set.
