Built GCC-4.4.0 for DJGPP. This time had to leave Ada out as the
Ada library fails to build. At least I did not found easily enough
how to get it to build for system without sockets support.

All stuff is at

As usually the first step was to build Linux to DJGPP cross-compiler.
Cross-compiler RPM packages are in subdirectory rpm. I built binary
RPMS in 32 bit CentOS 5.3 chroot under Fedora 10 x86_64. So hopefully
they should be compatible enough and be usable also for other
distributions.

Packages for DJGPP v2.03r2 are in subdirectory v203 and for development
version of DJGPP v2.04 in subdirectory v2.04. Packages were built under
Windows Vista Business SP1.

Not much testing done, so there should be a possibility to do more ...

Also, if there is wish to have Ada back, somebody will have to help in
this. I will almost surely have not enough time for doing it myself.
The easiest would perhaps to try for that at first to enable building Ada
compiler when building Linux to DJGPP cross-compiler. One could edit
specs file to skip bootstrapping at first native compiler as it takes
much time.
