Ok, you can (perhaps--I haven't been able to test it yet) ignore my previous post. I was trying to build the cross compiler using GCC 3.3, and nothing I tried would work. When I switched to 3.2.3, the errors disappeared. So I'm making the temporary (...) (21 years ago, 14-Jun-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
