I hope it's not too great inconvenience (the package has only been
accessed a very few times in the last month, none from this side of the
planet AFAIK) but in preparation to serve as a beta site for V2 I have to
remove (effective immediately, actually even sooner than that) EZ-GCC.  If
I get another disk this summer, or if V2 is significantly smaller than 
DJ's current guesstimate, I will reinstall it.  I just can't afford
to keep multiple copies of the source for GCC around, and I can't afford
the time to make sure that EZ-GCC and V2 track each other's source.  (We
should be so lucky....)

I will keep the readme for EZ-GCC; I can afford an inode and a block :-)

Speaking only for myself, I thought Tony did a great job putting the 
package together.  Three floppies for a fully ANSI-compliant compiler 
(with make and shareware editor) that is also portable to most common 
environments....  Wow!  Throw in another floppy and you, too, can get 
those lurvely "unresolved reference: __pure_virtual" error messages.  
Just plain mind-blowing.
