Building under LinuxPPC, I was able to get everything working with egcs
1.1.2. However, gcc 2.95 didn't work. I could get legOS.srec to build
and download, it would work OK for turning the RCX on/off, but the first
time I tried DLL'ing a program the kernel would hang. I never bothered
to dig into it further since egcs 1.1.2 seemed to be stable.
Of course I'm running on LinuxPPC, so there's a chance things would be
different for Linux/x86.
