    I have built the 386 compiler on my sparc and my only problem is with
    the linking.  I can't get the linker to work.  I belive that part of
    the problem to the linker is that I'm fairly lazy and don't have
    enough time.   The tools work fine as cross tools but you will need to
    hack the makefile so that the gen files don't get compiled by your
    cross tools.  This all works fine but I have to link on the PC!
    
    If anyone has the cross linker or knows what I have to do I would like
    and information leading to successfully building the gnu linker for
    the PC.
    
I had the exact same problem.  I even tried building it for a Vax and
trying it there (on the assumption it was a byte-ordering snafu) to no
avail.

Somebody mentioned that Dr. Dobb's Journal recently ran a series of
articles on cross-compiling with GCC, and dealt with byte-ordering
problems, but I don't have access to these back issues.  Perhaps you will
have better luck.

Please let me know if anyone comes up with a solution.

Thanks,
	Bob
