I have been taking a stab at it and have run into build problems. I tried to compile the following packages: 1. gal-0.19 2. bonobo-conf-0.14 3. gtkhtml-1.0.1 All three packages give the me same build problems: 1.

Does anyone have any ideas on what it might be? The toolchain is from the MacOS X Developer CD package that provides gcc-2.95.2. I have compiled a few other unix utilities sucessfully, so the toolchain does work on a some apps. I also tried to build gcc-3.0.3, but I don't think powerpc-apple-darwin target is supported yet, since that did not build either. Any ideas would be appreciated.
