Oh, hm. Must've missed that. And the stuff I wrote before was because I
misparsed your mail into thinking you were talking about stuff like
m68kEtchReleaseRecertification, which is something totally different.
Sorry 'bout that; working on it now.

The issues with producing a working cross-compiler that I hit against
were not m68k-specific. Also, they may or may not have been fixed in the
mean time; I know for a fact that there is no updated toolchain-source
package available, but there've been a few upstream updates in the mean
time, and I didn't go out and check them anymore (since my previous
attempts failed)
