"all" just needs to be qualified a bit more...I qualified it it
as "all hppa" whereas it could say "all architectures".

well, lots of debian packages use config.guess/config.sub.
But that's not the part that bugs me - the steps behind that
are little more than shell scripts packaged in Makefiles.
(eg "World" target in the main Makefile)

hmm...well, if someone needs a snapshot built, I'm happy to
pull an occasional tarball (once a month or so).

I already (irc.parisc-linux.org). lamont will have time to bin-NMU
when he gets home on Tuesday - he's on the road still now.

welcome.
FYI, I'm still seeing another gcc-3.3.1 problem building xfree86 4.2.1-9.
gcc isn't finding stuff for C++ libraries:

I thought this was an hppa specific problem. hppa gcc maintainer
watches parisc-linux list and we should hear from him....or from
anyone who cares to muck with binutils.
thanks,
