Subject: gpp cross compiler on MSDOS for 68K

Dear DJ,

First of all, let me say how pleased I am with your implementation of gcc on 
the MSDOS platform.  I teach OS for (at both graduate and undergraduate 
levels) here at UNSW.  In the process, I had developed my own single process 
multiple threads kernel and porting it onto I86 using your implementaiton 
was a breeze.  Prior to discovering your implementation, I was maintaining 
different versions for the different compiler platforms on PC and it was a 
mess.  Now I use the same source (with small changes to the stack fiddling 
code) on both R4000 and I86.  Congratulations!

Now, for the real reason for this mail:  I am in the process of developing 
code for Motorola 68K and R4000 code (for a hybrid multi-processor 
architecture I am building) from the MSDOS platform (i.e. I am looking for 
cross compiler for both 68K and R4000 that run on I86).  Could you or anyone 
who reads your mailing list suggest as to where should start looking?  I am 
prepared to *buy* cross complier implementations provided they "conform" to 
FSF gcc/gpp implementaions as much as yours does (and do not cost me a 
bomb).  Any pointers?

Thanks and regards

Jaya
