There were several resources which provide information on how to build the
cross compiler. With this in mind I chose to try the cross compiler build
script modified for the legOS project by Paulo Masetti
(http://legos.sourceforge.net/cygwin/download/legos-buildgcc.zip).  After
installing a few more DJGPP/GNU utilities (tar112ab.zip, gzip13b.zip,
sed203b.zip, pat253b.zip, grep24b.zip, txt20b.zip, dif28b.zip) and
correcting a couple of issues (removed the first line #!/bin/sh, added -p0
option to the patch command) I have started to configure the binutils. But
an error is received as I have described in the posting to
comp.os.msdos.djgpp, found here
If it helps, I got binutils to compile by using the --disable-bfd-assembler
option to configure. Then I ran into gcc troubles. I just gave up and
bought Linux.

dll and firmdl3 will need major rewrites because DJGPP has no tty
functionality. A serial library could be handy. I tried using SVAsync (from
the v2misc directory on Simtel) to port firmdl3, but kept getting dropped
bytes.

Beware that I have jumped around some, left some tasks unfinished, and (...) (22 years ago, 14-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
