Maybe I'm wrong (probably) but the binutil are based on this, right? So the question is: _if_ binutils are based on this, and we have no "sparc-elf-bsd" file for a description of this file, maybe we cannot run anything, right? And more: Alfred said he is trying to run cross-compiled apps under Solaris7. Is this bfd-file included? Does we need one to cross-compile Solaris7 apps? (to test the crosscompiler) I know. Maybe these are stupid questions. But I don't know much how it works and there is not so many docs about it 8( Tomorrow, I'll start playing with egcs cross-compiler.
