Alex,

Why cross-compilers (other than for speed)?  Why not start with Red Hat 7.2,
and just rebuild the Fedora SRPMS?  (or RHEL3, if you have it.)

Mark

P.S., since I _don't_ want 'a' (RPM based), I'll just keep on building
Slackware.  :P

The one thing I find a little disappointing of late is that there's no
distribution that is:
a) RPM-based
b) for s390
c) kept up to date
d) free as in beer

I can get three out of four of those (Debian (bcd) , SLES8 (abc) and
RHAS3 (abc)), but not all four.  Fedora would hit all four if it were
built for s390.

Has anyone looked at this yet?  I've gotten the appropriate cross
compilers working, and was having some problems with building glibc.
