	gzip -d -c gcc245sr.tgz > gcc245sr.tar
	djtarx gcc245sr.tar
	cd gcc-245
	configure
	ndmake CFLAGS=-O2

gcc245sr.tgz is gcc-2.4.5.tar.gz, djtarx will ask you about new
directory names for gcc-2.4.5 (answer gcc-245) and some file names.

You may have to apply patches from gcc241bn.zip (patches/gcc-241/*) to
some files to get it to work *exactly* the same, but I don't think
it's required.

Look in the FAQ.
