It's only used to compile kernels on Ultra sparc machines. It is a normal sparc32 executable and will run on any sparc machine. > BTW, I don't think it should be made priority=standard.

I'm not sure what the priority should be. egcs64 is necessary to compile the kernel on a sparc64 machine, and useless extra baggage on other machines. I originally set the priority at standard because of this, but I guess it wouldn't hurt to lower the priority. What priority should it be?
