No, I've never bootstrapped gcc on m68k, but I've seen ICEs with cross
compilers over the years.

For m68k-linux, gcc 3.3 was basically free of ICEs as I recall. (I can't
tell from your email whether it was 4.6 or 3.2 that ICE'd.)
So you might have more luck building gcc 3.3 using your gcc 3.2 compiler,
and then building 4.x using 3.3.
You may end up building 4.6 using 4.4 (which is how Debian did it).
