The toolchain stuff in GCC is broken. Sure, it hides everything under the huge, lumpy covers, but the bed you are expected to lie in looks like hell. The code generation needs to be decoupled at the quad level instead of where it is (bin*bletch*utils et. al.). I first complained about this in 1993, and submitted patches, which were rejected. Just like "brandelf" and "OLF". 8-(. Has anyone ever cross-compile for an NCR Tower XP on an NCR Tower 32? Now *THERE* was a reasonable cross-environment...
