Hmmm. I must say that gcc-2.7.0-3 and binutils 2.5.2-6, ie. the FSF
releases plus the Linux/MIPS patches from Ralf work really fine as
cross compilers from Linux to DOS (yeah!) and Linux/MIPS. I had lots
more trouble with any other release.

Amsterdam. Hmm, that's not that far away from here. So why not!
