Hi to all! Kernel 2.6 is to be released soon (hopefully), thus I tried to compile 2.5.69 on sparc64 recently. For those not knowing this arch: kernel is 64 bit, userland is 32 bit, thus you need a cross-compiler with host sparc32 and target sparc64 to compile a kernel. The problem is that the currently provided cross-compiler in package "egcs64" is _very_ old (1998) and does not work for 2.5.x any more; OTOH, the provided gcc does not support cross-compiling to 64-bit. Are there any plans to provide a recent version? IMHO the package egcs should be dropped completely, since "egcs" is history for a long time now... Thanks and have a nice day!
