Ok; I originally wrote this in HTML - but the list doesn't accept
attachments.  So, here is how it looks as text; sorry for the
poor formatting.  Consider it a work in progress.  :)

Binutils
Originally retrieved from ftp.cygnus.com - but that seems to be a fairly
"old"
version in terms of the PowerPC world.  Downloaded binutils-2.9.1.0.19a
from

ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/linux/tsx-11/packages/GCC/binutils-2.9.1.0.19a.tar.gz

and built and installed it.  Went on to GCC-2.95.2; but it insists that
a
newer
version of binutils is needed.  Referred to binutils-2.9.4.0.8 or newer.
Downloaded
ftp://ftp.varesearch.com/pub/support/hjl/binutils/binutils-2.9.5.0.22.tar.bz2

and will build and install it.

$ cd /usr/local/src
$ bunzip2 -c binutils-2.9.5.0.22.tar.bz2 | tar xf -
$ cd /usr/local/ppc
$ mkdir build-binutils-2.9.5.0.22
$ cd build-binutils-2.9.5.0.22
$ ../../src/binutils-2.9.5.0.22/configure --target=powerpc-eabi
--prefix=/usr/local/ppc -v
$ make all
$ make install

Using the latest version of egcs (now GCC) - version 2.95.2 as retrieved
using
anonymous cvs.
