I'd got the NetBSD one to the point of having gcc, binutils and a libc, but the laptop that I was working on has been stolen so work has come to something of a halt at the moment. I've got some of the packages on another machine, but I think the gcc ones are probably gone (I finished them just before moving house and hadn't got round to getting back to them before my laptop being taken). > I ask because I wanted to integrate gcc into the > NetBSD chroot environment, and I didn't even manage to compile it (it > stopped compiling with a strange error message, namely an assembler > error message, that some alignment is not the power of 2; I tried both > the gcc found in /usr/src/gnu and the vanilla 2.95.[23] from > ftp.gnu.org).

You ought to be able to get 2.95 to compile using the patches that come with the NetBSD source. -- Matthew Garrett | [EMAIL PROTECTED]
