Well, things like source dependencies, ... come to my mind.

Mhmm ... I don't have too much time, I would be interested though.
We'll see ...
Meanwhile .. back to Alpha. With a divided compiling effort we should
be careful if we have the same libraries and development system.
I'm currently compiling libg++, which wasn't available for egcs until
(hopefully) soon.
I'm currently using egcs-2.91.12 (from my site)
libstdc++2.8 (until now most packages have 272)
libc-2.0.6
after libg++ I will build fakeroot (which depends on libg++).
I should probably rename the libstdc++ package to libg++28 according
to i386 naming.
I'm not sure with this, because inthe egcs documentation it is said
that packages should get rid of g++ ... but I think this is not our
responsibility.
