You will need a special version of gcc. You have to install the
prc-tools, pilrc, and pose and/or xcopilot packages. I don't know where
to find these packages for Red Hat, but for Debian you just have to say
"apt-get install prc-tools pilrc pose xcopilot" and it will find,
download, and install the packages and their dependencies.
POSE runs on Linux, but I currently prefer xcopilot for 3 reasons:
speed, stability (pose tends to crash instead of showing error
messages), and gdb. OTOH, POSE is necessary if you want to test your
app vs a 3.1 ROM.
