The port I'm after doesn't yet exist, after all. Oh, BTW, I checked and (wouldn't you know it) the first gcc that added Cortex support is (I think) 4.3.0.

I know very well I can do it directly from the gcc sources, I alreqady tried that, excepting I used a machine description I can't end up with (derivative of Linux). > > to do all that... > > Warner
