O.K.  The pgcc patch applied cleanly against the egcs-1.1a tarball.

Does this refer to the configuration name?  In order to make `gcc -V'
work without having to specify `-b' I've had to make symlinks in
gcc-lib before.

Unfortunately, going back and rebuilding pgcc-1.0.3 is out of the
question.  I trust the binaries I have.  I don't need new ones, I only 
wish to be able to use them from a gcc driver installed in /usr/bin.

I will.  I recently found out I still had a functional gcc-2.7.2.3
available (convenient, if I get too afraid running Linux 2.1 kernels).

Basically I have gcc 2.7.2.3 (libc5 and libc6) and pgcc 1.0 installed
in /usr.  I have pgcc 1.0.1 and 1.0.3 installed in /usr/local, and I
wish to move the 1.0.3 installation into /usr as a backup/alternate.
I'm ready to dump 1.0 and 1.0.1.

O.K.  I'm a dummy, and not used to keeping multiple versions of gcc
around and it took me awhile to figure out how it should work and how
I wanted it to work.

Oh well.  Off to build the new beastie, for fun I think I'm going to
add f77 this time ...
