This question may be a little off topic, but one of our software engineers
recently aquired a handful of PCs running QNX in order to do a project.
I would like to be able to port some of my more common utilities, such
as postgres95, and a few other tools. Unfortuantely, the Watcom C 
compiler that we got with the system seems to be rather inadequate to
do the builds, so I originally thought I would compile the GNU C compiler,
and go from there. Same problem.

I'm now wondering if its possible to get my FreeBSD box (I'll rebuild GCC
if I have to) to make binaries that would be compatable with QNX, so I could
do the builds, then move the libraries and executables over (or just
link static and be done with it). Any help, as always, is appreciated.
