>From memory (I don't have the list with me), the following things do not
compile with the current egcs port and die with various errors:

lib/libc
lib/libc_r
lib/libstand
games/bs
games/<one other one>
gnu/lib/libg++
gnu/lib/libstd++
gnu/usr.bin/groff
sys/<lots of stuff> - the boot code dies with errors, and the modules die
because of the -elf directive or something
lkm/* because of -aout

I've not looked into the exact causes and whether they're something I can
easily submit fixes for myself, but that's the list :-) Apart from that
everything else seems to compile and run just fine (-O2 -mpentium
-march=pentium)..
