This isn't really an accurate description of what's missing.  GCC
doesn't build DSO's itself.  GCC lacks libtool and various config
files for 64-bit parisc-linux.  However, very little is missing
for C support.

Although GNU ld is somewhat broken, it should be able to build 64-bit
DSO's with the support that's presently there.  That's assuming we
keep the same runtime as hpux (ok, there are some symbol predefines
and elf issues that probably need looking at).

What stops building DSO's at the moment is

/usr/bin/hppa64-linux-ld: crti.o: No such file: No such file or directory

This is a glibc file.
